Put Away the Golf Balls

ESPN's College Gameday will broadcast live from the LSU campus this Saturday, site of #9 VA Tech vs. #2 LSU. This is Gameday's first trip back to Baton Rouge since the season opener in 2004, when redshirt freshman JaMarcus Russell helped pull out a 22-21 OT victory for the defending national champion LSU Tigers against the Oregon St Beavers. There was talk that ESPN didn't want Gameday to cover this game, since they were at VA Tech's season opener last week, but the match-up is by far the best of the day and LSU is one of the Gameday crew's favorite stops.

So LSU fans, be clever, be rowdy and show your Tiger spirit. LSU has lots of big games on the schedule this year, so ESPN Gameday will likely cover the Tigers again this year, most likely when LSU travels to take on former coach Nick Saban and Alabama or when defending national champion Florida comes to Death Valley.
