I posted this in other threads. Starters banged up, so are 2nd string. A big weakness as of today. Injury report comes out today.

LSU has 3 guys at LB that they can really trust in big games atm, and then some other rotating pieces I haven’t really kept up who’s got the late game lb reps in the blowouts, the younger weeks brother is one of em.

Not the same.

Dottery and Keys are way better than what they have. We also have options behind them.

Singleton and little Weeks are both solid players. Singleton can run run and Weeks is rock solid. Pretty sure Weeks had to come in and play a bunch against Florida last year.

Any signs of ability to contribute from Braiker or Moses? Both were highly recruited and have been in the system over a year (I'm pretty sure).

I do wonder what we have after Dottery Keys Singleton and Z Weeks.

Thank you for the info. What type of injuries to the starters? Chance they play Saturday?

FTR - Would like to see teams at full strength, not rooting for big injuries.

I know they had Braker taking reps at DE in camp when Shanklin was away from the team and before they added junior tuihalamaka. He was banged up the 1st few weeks but last week was back and in on special teams and got some run late with the 3's at MLB. One of those guys that is clearly physically talented but don't know what the long term outlook is with guys like Keys, Singleton, Weeks, & Charles Ross all ahead of him on the depth chart with eligibility remaining.

LSU has Dottery, Keys, Singleton and Zach weeks who are all experienced.
Sounds like Kentucky’s top 4 are questionable

I don't know what happened to Keylan Moses but Braiker has been getting some work.
Jimcoily is another option at LB, so I believe we are good to go there with all who are rotating in and out, even with Whit out.

Dottery, Keys, Singleton, Z Weeks, Braiker, Jimcoily all should get reps vs Kentucky.

You guys haven’t mentioned the most important thing in LSUs favor,coaching this staff is off the charts at making adjustments.
