The defending national champions got back on track this past weekend with a decisive 52-24 win over the South Carolina Gamecocks.

ESPN’s Mark Schlabach and Kyle Bonagura released their latest bowl projections and have the Tigers heading to the Outback Bowl in Tampa, Fla.

This week, both Bonagura and Schlabach agree with LSU’s destination — and opponent. Their projections have LSU facing Indiana of the Big Ten.

The Hoosiers pulled a major upset in their return to play last week, defeating then-No. 8 Penn State.

Just last week, Bonagura had LSU in the TicketSmarter Birmingham Bowl facing the Houston Cougars, while Schlabach had LSU in the TaxSlayer Gator Bowl against the Florida State Seminoles.

LSU is now 2-2 on the season and faces the Auburn Tigers in a pivotal SEC matchup on the road Saturday.
