LSU coach Les Miles is beginning to cross the t’s and dot the i’s for his opening day roster Saturday.
Miles released a depth chart Wednesday for the showdown against No. 3 Oregon, with a few surprises.
Senior offensive lineman T-Bob Hebert is listed as the starting left guard in place of injured senior left guard Josh Dworaczyk, but Miles said freshman La’El Collins will also see action.
“They had a good practice [Wednesday],” Miles said. “I think Collins will play some, but I think T-Bob will probably be that him.”
After a hectic week of investigations that led to the suspension of senior quarterback Jordan Jefferson, Miles had the daunting task of maintaining the team’s focus leading up to Saturday’s headliner.
“I don’t know that I did a very good job. We’ll have to see,” Miles said. “We second guess a lot as coaches. There’s a bunch of ways in my opinion that we could have done better. By and large it’s a really quality football team, quality young Texas.”
