51 available scholarship players for the bowl game.
That is 51 AFTER injuries, transfers, opt-outs, etc etc....
51 is what's left.

Bowl games have become so meaningless outside of the NY6 and Playoffs

It's all good. That's a little more than one backup for each position. That's about all you need for a scrimmage

Comical. Only 34 players short. Next year we will be another year without 85 and lucky to have 75 on the roster.
Cancel the game. Blame Covid

There's plenty of players who would love to play this game. Freshmen included, but not just them. Opt outs just might rob them of that chance.
I know the SEC rule was 53 scholarship players.
A) I don't think SEC rules apply to a NCAA sanctioned event, and I'm unsure of the NCAA rule. I thought it was 64 players dressed, scholarship or not, but I'm not confident in that.
B) Those were Covid rules, which were never officially removed but just might not be enforced in 2021.

Even after you posted this the people on here still don't comprehend that it is that many scholarship players.
51 of 85
LSU had 122 players on the official roster.
So let's assume there were 85 scholarship players on the team. That's 34 not available.
So 87 players left. Just round down to 80 for giggles. 3 full teams worth plus a couple.
