Not sure who will start at quarterback for the LSU Tigers this Saturday when they host Mississippi State. Danny Etling performed well in the 2nd quarter last weekend, sparking the Tigers to a 34-13 victory over Jacksonville State. Brandon Harris struggled against Wisconsin and in the first quarter against the Gamecocks. But Coach Les Miles has no regrets about not playing Etling against the Badgers. He says Etling was in a better position to take the field against Jacksonville State…

Miles says Fournette’s health has improved enough and he expects his star running back to play against the Bulldogs. Kick-off is at 6 PM.

The Saints have signed a cornerback to replace the injured Delvin Breaux. B-W Webb has reportedly agreed to a one-year deal with New Orleans. He’s 26-years-old and played for the Titans last season and his one career interception came against the Saints. Breaux is expected to miss the next six weeks because of a broken fibula.

Louisiana Tech’s Trent Taylor has been named the Louisiana Sports Writers Association offensive player of the week. Taylor had 11 catches for a career-high 178 yards in the Bulldogs weather delayed 53-24 win over South Carolina State. The state’s defensive player of the week is Kenny Doson of Nicholls State. The defensive lineman had five tackles, a sack and a forced fumble against Georgia. The Colonels host Incarnate Word for their Southland and home opener this Saturday.
