No. 5 Tigers Rally Past No. 15 Arizona State, 35-31 - LSUsports.net

Box Score
LSU(ルイジアナ州立大)はランキング5位の強豪だが、この日の開幕戦では格下とはいえ強豪のアリゾナ州立大(#15)に序盤からリードされる苦しい展開。しかし、4Q にフィールドゴールとパントのブロックからのリターンタッチダウンを2発決めて 21-17 と逆転。その後は TD の取り合いで逆転また逆転のすごい展開、しかし最後は残り1:13で39ヤードの逆転TDパスを決めての激勝! すごい!
新ヘッドコーチの Les Miles の言葉。「これは映画のシナリオじゃないよ」
LSU's victory brings bittersweet emotion - Associated Press
"This is not a made-for-TV movie," coach Les Miles said. "This was a real-life trauma where friends and family had to stay in the dorms and the town swelled to take in the New Orleans evacuees. We are treating people that are injured and disadvantaged 200 yards from our stadium. We have a scrimmage, and Blackhawk helicopters are flying people from New Orleans over our heads."
