The LSU Tigers started out fast in this game as they went up 14-0 on Central Michigan very quickly. Plenty of energy is being shown by the Bayou Bengals for the first time this season. They started out the last two games scoring on two of their first eight drives in the first quarter.
Max Johnson already threw for one touchdown as Deion Smith went over the top of the CMU defender to score the opening touchdown. The Tigers went back to the passing game as Johnson once again looked for No. 6, but this time down the right sideline.
The Tigers would go up 21-0 after this catch from Smith.
There they go again! @Max_Johnson_14 to @Deion6_ for the TOUCHDOWN
