BATON ROUGE, Louisiana -- The kickoff of the season opener between Southern and Louisiana Tech was delayed 12 minutes because of lightning Saturday night.That’s about the same amount of time it took the Bulldogs to use their own lightning strikes to remove any doubt about the outcome.
Tech needed less than 10 minutes to score the first 17 points and had touchdowns covering 55, 45, 22, 27, 58 and 65 yards in rolling to a 44-point halftime lead. When the season opener for both teams at Joe Aillet Stadium came to a merciful end, the Bulldogs had thrashed the Jaguars 62-15.
“I feel like we lacked effort,” Southern cornerback Danny Johnson said. “We missed tackles, and some of us didn’t do our assignments. We’ve got to get better.”
Johnson said coach Dawson Odums “stayed positive so we can stay positive.”
