Bayou Brew 10/3: Geauxing To Paris
Today, Aleah Finnegan is Olympic bound!
Good morning. The swim & dive teams have been having some fun on the beach volleyball courts before their meet at Utah on Saturday! They’re ready to get the season started.
What did we pour into today's Brew?
🤸♀️ Tiger to the Olympics
🎥 Brian Kelly’s press conference
🐯 And much, much more!
Tigers Win. Yesterday, we sent you to the film room with star outfielder Ciara Briggs. Today, we have a Tigers Win episode for you with the two-time Rawlings Gold Glove Award winner! She brought some hardware to the set with Cody Worsham as they talk about growing up, getting to where she is now, and chasing a third Gold Glove.
Film Room. Let’s head back to the Film Room. Coach Brian Kelly joins Gordy Rush in the Football Film Room to break down quarterback Jayden Daniels' great execution at Ole Miss - including a draw that allowed LSU to pick up the first down on 2nd & 17. Click here to watch!
👀 Keep your eyes peeled for episode five of The Path, coming out this evening on LSU GOLD.
