The LSU Tigers and the USC Trojans will clash on Sunday night for one of the most anticipated games of Week 1. According to the AP Poll, both schools are ranked within the top 25 teams in the nation, with the Tigers being the No. 13 school and the Trojans the No. 23. The game will be available on ABC.
Both schools are going through an important transitional period, after losing their quarterbacks in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft. The Chicago Bears drafted Caleb Williams with the first overall pick of the draft. Jayden Daniels was the second overall pick by the Washington Commanders.
Both players won the Heisman at their respective schools and will be difficult to replace. Longtime backups Garrett Nussmeier (LSU Tigers) and Miller Moss (USC Trojans) will be taking the starting spot at the center of the huddle tonight.
