The pass rush was consistent and the Tigers were able to force a couple turnovers when their team needed them most. And Western Kentucky won’t be facing a vintage Les Miles defense.
With the Hilltoppers stacking the box with defenders all night, Fournette was unable to achieve any of the long highlight runs. LSU’s defensive unit is predicated a lot on National Football League pass rushing schemes, and there is a reason the school consistently produces such talents.
LSU finished with 211 yards rushing, well below its average of 325.5 yards coming in.
With LSU running a pro-style offense, opposing defensive coordinators are often under the impression that their team will leave victorious if they stack the box and force the Tigers to beat them through the air.
“Apparently, people think I can’t throw”, Harris said after passing for 202 yards and two touchdowns against in a victory over Florida last weekend that boosted the unbeaten Tigers (6-0) to fifth in the national rankings. DRIVE: 5-74-2:50. KEY PLAY: Brossette starts the drive with a 10-yard run to the LSU 36.
So far, WKU’s only loss came on the road, by a field goal, against Indiana of the Big Ten.
Doughty sliced up LSU’s secondary, completing 16 of 30 passes for 128 yards while getting sacked just once in the first half when outside linebacker Deion Jones got him.
“We came out first half, did a great job really stopping the run”.
WESTERN KENTUCKY: Antwane Grant 39 pass from Doughty at 8:36 (kick failed).
Two plays later, Harris’ attempted fade route to Dural fell incomplete but drew a pass interference call on Prince Iworah.
Through the first six games of the season, Dupre and Dural have combined for 37 receptions for 605 yards with five touchdowns and have each recorded a 100-yard game within the past two weeks-Dural against South Carolina and Dupre against Florida.
LSU: Domingue 34 field goal at 10:26.
The Tigers lead the Hilltoppers, 14-7, heading into halftime after a Darrel Williams two-yard touchdown with 1:25 remaining in the second quarter. The extra point attempt by Garrett Schwettman missed wide left, putting the LSU lead at 17-13.
On the ensuing kick, Jamal Adams forced a fumble by returner Kylen Towner and freshman Nick Brossette scooped up the loose ball at the Western Kentucky 24.
Western Kentucky running back Anthony Wales (20) runs against LSU… Fournette plowed into the end zone from the one for his first score of the night to give LSU a 27-13 advantage. Their big physical offensive line should absolutely smother the Hilltoppers defensive front giving Fournette room to run and buying Brandon Harris plenty of time to throw the ball. “He was smart and realized that at the worst-case scenario, it could have been an interception, but it would have just been like a punt that they would have had to do anyway”.
“Very frustrating, because on third down, they were just throwing it up to receivers and the receivers were making the plays”.
LSU appeared to put the nail in the coffin of Big Red on the following drive.
With all the injuries, the Tigers had to use a deeper rotation to fill out their nickel and dime packages – calling on cornerbacks Ed Paris and Donte Jackson and safeties Corey Thompson and John Battle to help fill the void. The LSU offense then tacked on another touchdown. And the Tigers are nearly certainly keen to play Western Kentucky when conditions improve; there’s been no word on whether a postponement is even on the docket.
His leading receiving option takes form in receiver Taywan Taylor.
