Through the first three games of the season, the LSU defense had schematic issues with busted coverages and plenty of missed tackles.
But last weekend against South Carolina, the defense made adjustments and looked much improved.
Freshman BJ Ojulari had a phenomenal game, and graduate transfer Jabril Cox was tied for the team lead in tackles.
Here’s a look into the defensive players of the week from the Tigers’ win over the Gamecocks.
BJ Ojulari
The Tigers freshman had three sacks against the Gamecocks and four tackles. He also had one quarterback hurry in the win.
Ojulari continues to impress the coaching staff every game, and he looks better each week.
The linebacker certainly has a bright future ahead, and his three sacks in the win will carry over to the remainder of the season. Tigers fans should be excited for Ojulari’s future in Baton Rouge.
