Episode Notes

LSU heads into the Texas Bowl severely shorthanded, with six defensive starters unavailable, forcing several Tigers into expanded roles against Houston. We break down the three LSU players to watch, led by safety Dashawn Spears, who could play a pivotal role on the back end.

We also share insight from LSU’s bowl preparation, explain why containing Houston quarterback Conner Weigman as a runner is critical to winning the game, and how the defensive game plan may adjust with so many absences.

Plus, a cool offseason note from the diamond — former LSU infielder Michael Braswell has signed a professional contract with the Kansas City Royals as a pitcher, completing a unique path back to pro ball.

Texas Bowl preview, roster updates, game keys, and LSU news — it’s all here.
