BATON ROUGE — LSU football hosts South Alabama for its final nonconference game of the season inside Tiger Stadium on Saturday night.
The No. 13 Tigers (3-1) come into the Week 5 game on a three-game winning streak, including winning their SEC opener two weeks ago at South Carolina and more recently a 34-17 victory over UCLA at home last weekend. LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier has played like one of the top signal callers in college football as he ranked second in the FBS in passing touchdowns with 13 through four games while completing more than 70% of his passes.
South Alabama sports a two-game win streak heading into Death Valley, including dropping 87 points against Northwestern State in a game that was shortened due to point differential. The Jaguars (2-2) ran Appalachian State out of its own stadium last weekend, winning 48-14.
