LSU faces a quarterback transition as Bert Jones departs. Mike Miley and Billy Broussard, both 6-1 and around 190 pounds, are viewed as unproven but promising, with McClendon noting the offense will pivot to sprint-out passes and more running. The defense returns six starters under Warren Capone, aiming for a stronger unit to carry early season wins. The opener vs Colorado looms as a crucial test.
