First Quarter


The opening quarter set the tone for the Tigers as they quickly took control. Garrett Nussmeier led the charge with precision passing, completing 25 out of 31 attempts for a total of 273 yards and three touchdowns. His performance was instrumental in securing an early lead for LSU, as they scored their first touchdown without allowing any points from the Lions.


Second Quarter


The second quarter saw an explosive display from LSU's offense, adding four more touchdowns to their tally. Michael Van Buren Jr., stepping in as quarterback, contributed significantly by completing 10 out of his 12 passes for an additional touchdown. The Bayou Bengals' defense also shone brightly during this period, preventing any scoring opportunities for Southeastern Louisiana.


Third Quarter


In the third quarter, both teams managed to add points to their scoresheet. The Lions finally broke through LSU's defense with a touchdown but were unable to close the gap significantly due to continued pressure from players like Damien Shanklin and Dylan Carpenter on defense. Shanklin recorded two sacks while Carpenter added another sack and tackle for loss.


Fourth Quarter


As the game progressed into its final quarter, LSU maintained its dominance by adding two more touchdowns while limiting Southeastern Louisiana to just a field goal. Zavion Thomas showcased his versatility by contributing both on receiving plays and punt returns that kept momentum firmly on LSU's side.


Despite some penalties incurred during play—totaling seven—the Tigers' overall efficiency remained high throughout all quarters. Their red zone success rate stood at an impressive one hundred percent across six attempts—a testament not only to strategic execution but also player discipline under pressure situations.
