The first half wasn’t too pretty.
After halftime, Ed Orgeron said the Tigers needed to establish the running game and be physical from the point of attack, and his team did just that in the second half.
After LSU went into halftime tied 10-10, it scored 35 unanswered points to win 45-10.
Here’s what Orgeron had to say following the game:
