The LSU Tigers got back on track last with a 41-7 victory over Vanderbilt to move to 1-1 on the season after a disappointing loss to the Mississippi State Bulldogs to kick it off.
Junior quarterback Myles Brennan was tremendous in his second career start, completing 23 of 37 passes for 337 yards with four touchdowns and one interception. Brennan completed a pass to 11 different receivers in the win.
Brennan has now thrown for over 300 yards with at least three touchdowns passes in each of his first two starts.
For as good as the offense was, Bo Pelini’s defense was equally as outstanding.

After giving up a record 623 passing yards to Mississippi State’s K.J. Costello in the season-opener, Pelini’s defense allowed just 266 total yards in the win over Vandy.
Vanderbilt quarterback Ken Seals completed 11 of 25 passes for 113 yards and was intercepted twice.
In last week’s win, LSU had several standout individual performances on both sides of the ball.
Who was the best?
