The Tigers cruised to an easy win on Saturday night in their first-ever matchup against New Mexico.
LSU held the Lobos off the scoreboard in a 38-0 win, the first shutout the team has registered since the 2018 season. It was a dominant defensive performance as UNM was held under 100 yards of offense, while LSU accounted for more than 600 yards of total offense.
It was a nice tuneup, though the Tigers did walk away with some injuries that Kelly addressed after the game. They may be a bit shorthanded as they continue SEC play next week on the road against Auburn.
Still, it’s hard to find many flaws with LSU’s performance in this one. Here’s what coach [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] had to say after the game.
