Nicholls Colonels vs. LSU Tigers | Full Game Highlights | ESPN College Football

and back to receive is xaven Thomas the terrific punt returner last year at Mississippi State DUI just has to kick it out of the end zone and the first two points of the game come on a misc on the Special Teams [Applause] unit I think that was Elijah Reams The Long Snapper maybe a little bit of nerves the the kid from Baton Rouge coming back and playing in Tiger stadium and dpri really didn't have an option there dpri a high spiraling kick to the 20 and now Thomas out across the 40 There Goes Thomas at Midfield breaks a tackle Thomas into the open field and he has shoved out of bounds in plus territory he sets this up perfect Dustin yeah he really does he comes off to the right side and just really kind of bounces it all the way across the coverage and nearly a tackle made by a Defender there by a colonel Defender I should say and well you talked about it the zavon Thomas has some elusive ability as I think it's Jaden Milton 27 there who Daniels in motion the give to Jackson Who barrels ahead for a first down extremely well and you can see it even on this drive that offensive line starting from the middle doing a heck of a job getting a push play action on first and goal is floated into the end zone and it's Trey Dez Green in his first touchdown catch and an LSU [Applause] uniform getting it done you got a safety because of a botch snap then a 59 yd punt return not if we have anything to do about it and that's their goal is is to sort of prevent them from getting their younger guys in there we go Colin ganh High sifting through the defense all the way up to the 35 yd line after a gain of 18 keeps it gugenheim stopped short of The End Zone by maybe a yard tackle made by PJ Woodland with his pads in front back to Guggenheim gugenheim reaching and it's a touchdown for the colonels [Applause] good job inside really good block by DeAndre Keller the left guard to seal that off and allow gugenheim to run behind does a really good job getting the football across the goal line extends it boy talk about [Applause] a nus Meer flushed using his wheels nus me slides across the 50 and it's a first down for the Tigers and Mason Taylor across the [Applause] formation nus Meer looking he connects kyen Lacy over the top and it is a touchdown and Lacy again is shaken up after the acrobatics into the end zone acrobatic touchdown but everyone holding their breath here in Baton Rouge hoping they're leading returning wide receiver is okay night 14th rank Tennessee hosting Kent State in Knoxville that's 745 each game available on the app McQuade still perfect it's a first down reception by Terry Matthews second and six Guggenheim double pass into the end zone and it's caught for a touchdown Lee neg Gro for Nicholls on the pass by Quincy Brown an 18yd score and here come the colonels and well it is a one- score game now and what a catch for the Tigers nus Meer airing it out and connects with CJ Daniels still on his feet and Dives inside the 30 dragged down just barely K Lacy he keep showing I'm guessing he's coming maybe not he stays out there nus me another deep shot connects with Aaron Anderson for a first down and inside the [Applause] five NM to Jawan Johnson into the end zone for a touchdown his first in an LSU uniform you just get the sense that at some point coach Kelly was going to get him back here to the offensive side of the football you see him just out leverage there at the defense that's Eli Anis 44 no chance no just not enough speed from a linebacker trying to catch one of the faster guys on the field nus me with great patience it's Z Thomas for a first down they got a break too I think because I I don't know they could have got up to the line of scrimmage this quickly this allowed them to get the field goal unit on the field and Ramos this time puts it through no he does not it is wide and Tim reo's team walks off the field at the half down 23-4 a win for Nicholls well I guess ball don't lie right I mean that that is a situation where I think LSU caught a break to get back their field goal unit on the field with the runoff and still be able to get it off but nonetheless the kick goes wide right I think a good job by by Nicholls third down heck even fourth down tonight as well uhoh there goes Guggenheim nothing but Green in front of him being checked down Guggenheim inside the five and a touchdown for the colonels 67 yds on a Saturday night in dep Valley right now and I think this entire building is because you you you're down at halftime of course Nichols and LSU you're up and you're thinking yeah we'll get a quick three and out get back on offense and go make this a blowout like everyone expects Nichols has other plans and gugenheim just a tough cat man playing that running back position is able to step in assuming the right call Williams still on his feet Williams with a first down 12 yd [Applause] gain nus Meer under pressure and a touchdown the second of the day for kyen Lacy nus me just does a good job finding Lacy kind of a pivot route where he comes inside the two Defenders are looking at the quarterback nus they become Spectators on this as they watch kyen Lacy just walk into the end zone what coach REO is asking him to do keep him in the ball game you don't have to win the game Throw throws like that hold on to the ball ball is loose and scooped up by LSU LSU fumbled recovered by the defense first down LSU that's a catch all day and a great strip it's like the old Peanut Tillman Strip by PJ Woodland here number 11 the young freshman corner and now they're in a position because the defensive turnover now with a short field and and to try and put this thing a little bit further Out Of Reach for for Nicholls and and the colonels oh that's a great Move On The Edge xaven Thomas with a first down and more and return eight star on that side of the ball this year second and six for the Tigers you got Lacy in the slot right here they're looking for him on the seven and they got him touchdown number three for Kiron Lacy and it stands spot to being as a Defender I mean you're you're playing basically zero coverage which means you don't have a lot of help and the defensive back right there that's konay Williams 26 he's trying to play outside in just gets caught staring in in the backfield at the quarterback and uh the Committees right that that are going to be watching these games and determining who's good right we we we don't know uh at this point who's who's any good I think you know that the brands are good but I don't know man these rosters the turnover just makes it really difficult for teams to to to gel and to mesh this early in the season and I think that's sort of why you're seeing some of these upsets here this week and certainly last week as well history Tonight third and one shuffle pass xaven Thomas House call touchdown [Applause] Tigers again just a shovel pass you get a lead block a really good block by Josh Williams number 18 and then you see Thomas just kind of Bounce outside off that block by Josh Williams not catching him pressure up the middle nus me evading and hits his man xaven Thomas with the catch but short of the first down marker how about that Mobility by Garrett ner in the face of nus right up the middle time Mars number six had nus me dead to rights just could not get him on the ground you said Mobility that's that's a good way to put it escapability how about that too slippery down staring down the CL some Hallelujah
