The No. 14 LSU Tigers tried to forget about last week’s loss to the University of Florida with an offensive explosion.
The Tigers (5-2, 2-2) scored 49 points and racked up 546 yards of total offense in the team’s 49-0 win against the University of Kentucky (3-4, 1-3) Saturday night in Tiger Stadium.
After one of its worst offensive showings this season in Gainesville, Fla., which included four offensive turnovers and just 10 points, LSU turned it around in stunning fashion.
LSU coach Les Miles said the way the team played is a sign of the players’ character.
“This team has played some teams very well, so for us to handle [Kentucky] as well as we did is nice,” Miles said. “This football team came out today in a fashion that they were needy. They needed victory and you could see how they played, that they were not going to be denied tonight.”
