Matthew Brune and Bryce Koon are back with the weekly edition of the mailbag podcast on Wednesday morning, taking the Bengal Tiger On3 subscriber’s LSU questions. LSU got a big win over Florida on Saturday, but the good times were quickly quelled by an injury update on LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier. Now, it’s about rounding out the offense’s potential against Southeastern this week.

“We didn’t give up a sack and that’s a really good defense, so I’m pleased there,” Kelly said. “If we need to go out there and throw the ball 50 times, we can do that. We’re going to have to score more than 20 points sometimes in the SEC, so this is about developing our run game. This is about developing your weaknesses.”

Check out the full episode wherever you get your podcasts and stay tuned to the YouTube channel and podcast feeds for the latest on LSU football. Enjoy the podcast? Leave a like on YouTube or a five star rating on Apple or Spotify.
