LSU CONTINUES TO PREP FOR AUBURN
BATON ROUGE – Top-ranked
LSU continued to prepare for its clash with Southeastern Conference
Western Division rival Auburn on Wednesday as the No. 1-ranked Tigers
went indoors for a spirited two hour workout here at the Charles
McClendon Practice Facility. LSU and Auburn square off at
2:30 p.m. on Saturday in a sold out Tiger Stadium. The game will be
televised nationally on CBS. LSU, winners of all seven of its game by
double-figures, is 7-0 overall and 4-0 in conference action. Auburn is
5-2 overall and 3-1 in league play. After Wednesday’s
practice, LSU head coach Les Miles issued the following comments
regarding the Tigers’ preparation for the Auburn game: “I
certainly understand the interest surrounding what seems to be news.
The problem with that news is that it’s internal discipline and an
internal function of a team. I’m not inclined to be forthcoming with
information. I’m not reactionary to meet the (needs) of the media and
things external to this building. So, with that being said, there’s a
process that I go through. When there’s information that I can share, I
will. I can only tell you that I’m doing this in the best interest of
our football team, our squad and to maintain a deportment and a
procedure that I’m true to in a process that I’m very comfortable with.
There’s no real information about any specific player that I’ll address
at this point. “I liked our practice. I think our
preparation for Auburn is ongoing. I like the position that we’re in.
We have a very capable football team. Our football team is looking
forward to playing in Tiger Stadium in front of friends and family.”
