LSU vs North Texas


( 56 - 3 Win )

LSU floored the Mean Green 56-3 in front of 88,887 fans who were forced to wait nearly two months for the rout that was supposed to be this season's first game. Instead the moderately amused fans filed in Saturday after the game was shoved back to Halloween by Hurricane Katrina.  

The Tigers scored enough points in the game's first three minutes to put away the win. But the pile on started early and continued well into the second half as a host of purple and gold clad players used the mismatch as an opportunity to see their first significant playing time of the season.





LSU needed a break from the stresses and the strains of heart-breaking and heart-pounding Southeastern Conference football games. Unfortunately for the players from the University of North Texas Saturday in Tiger Stadium, they embodied that break. That's what they get for making us wear our purple jerseys.
