LSU’s defense could be without two starters when it faces Western Kentucky today.

Junior defensive tackle Christian LaCouture suffered a foot injury this week, and is not expected to play.

Cornerback Tre’Davious White, a junior who also returns punts, could miss the game with a knee injury. White underwent an MRI after injuring his knee at practice Monday, but the results of the MRI are unknown.

No. 5 LSU (6-0) will host Western Kentucky (6-1) at 7 p.m. The game will be shown on ESPNU.
