The Saints dropped to 0-2 in preseason action last night as the Black and Gold fell to the Green Bay Packers 20-10 in Lambeau Field. Most of the starters didn’t play, in fact back-up quarterback Andy Dalton didn’t see the field. That meant Ian Book went the whole way and he only threw for 113 yards and was the team’s leading rusher with seven carries for 49 yards. Book also turned it over twice and the Saints committed nine penalties. Coach Dennis Allen says he’s disappointed in the loss…

The big highlight from the game was Book’s 20-yard touchdown pass to Chris Olave right before halftime. The final Saints preseason game is Friday at home against the Chargers.

At LSU camp there are some freshmen who are standing out, one of the players is Harold Perkins, the five-star linebacker out of Cypress Texas. Tigers defensive coordinator Matt House says Perkins speed and athleticism flash on the practice field…

The Ragin Cajuns hold their final scrimmage of preseason camp today and Coach Michael Desormeaux is expected to name a starting quarterback shortly after that scrimmage concludes. Chandler Fields and Ben Woolridge have been competing against each other.
