LSU head coach speaks out

LSU head coach Jay Clark spoke out before the season opener.

“It’s going to be a great environment in the PMAC on Friday night as we host Ohio State," said Clark.

"They are a great up and coming team who made it to the round of 16 last year, which is difficult today with so many great teams. It’ll be a good test for us to get this season started.

"We’re excited to get in front of our fans. It’s always good when you can open the season at home before you have to go on the road and we’re expecting a big crowd tomorrow night.

"This team is as talented as I’ve ever coached and we’re excited to start with a clean slate."
