The list below was pulled from the LSU Player Participation Report posted on LSUSports.net. It appears that 18 players played their first game for LSU were either Fr-redshirts or Freshman:

1-Eric Reid, 4C-C. Neighbors, 14-Tyrann Mathieu, 16-Spencer Ware, 24-Alfred Blue, 26-Tharold Simon, 28-Ronnie Vinson, 46-Kevin Minter, 49-Bark. Mingo, 56-Seth Fruge, 57-Lamin Barrow, 58-Tahj Jones, 74-Josh Williford, 82-James Wright, 86-Kardon Boone, 90-Mi. Brockers, 94-Kendrick Adams, 99-Sam Montgomery.

Of the 18 players, 10 of them were true freshmen or 1st year in Tiger uniform.

Not sure how this number of young players compares to prior years or to other SEC schools. Just thought it may be interesting to see how many young players participated in the game. Also, I thought I remember seeing #81 - Armand Williams in at least for one play, but, he is not listed on the participation report. Did see both James Wright and Kadron Boone play at receiver on multiple plays.

Now if we can just get Michael Ford in the game!

Yep. Adams is a junior transfer, 9 were true freshmen, and 8 were redshirt freshmen: LINK.

Loston also played as the 9th redshirt freshmen, but it was not his first night playing for LSU.

Yet all we hear about is UNC's second string who would start at some places.

Do any journalists analyze anything the day after a game?
