LSU football faces Louisiana Tech on Saturday night in what should be a tune-up game for the Tigers, though not much tuning is needed after LSU beat Clemson 51-10 in Week 1.
LSU is a heavy favorite vs. the Bulldogs. Last week, LSU's second team got plenty of reps in a lopsided victory, and the depth chart could be emptied again today. If LSU starts fast and builds a healthy lead in the first half, a handful of true freshmen will get significant time in the second half.
The SEC schedule is a grind. And in the era of the 12-team playoff and extended seasons, developing depth can be the difference between missing the College Football Playoff or going on a run. LSU has the raw talent to make noise in Lane Kiffin's first year, but LSU will need some young guys to step up.
Here are four true freshmen to watch when LSU football takes on Louisiana Tech.
Lamar Brown was the headline piece of Lane Kiffin's first high school signing class. ESPN ranked Brown as the No. 1 overall recruit in the country and he was heralded as a player ready to make an immediate impact, despite not enrolling early.
