How to Watch: LSU Football vs. Army in Week 8 Showdown
Brian Kelly and Co. will be back in Tiger Stadium on Saturday when No. 19 LSU hosts the Army Black Knights in a non-conference battle in Week 8.
The Tigers will honor Army with a camouflage end zone when the two square off in Baton Rouge with LSU planning to honor the Black Knights in a myriad of ways.
The Bayou Bengals look to continue rounding the corner after two early season losses, and with a bye week next week, this will be their final tune-up game before hitting the road to Tuscaloosa in Week 10.

Army Players to Know:
Bryson Daily: Quarterback
It's no secret the Black Knights take pride in their rushing attack with a specialty in the triple option. Their signal-caller, Bryson Daily, has served as a game manager for Army through the first half of the season.
Fast forward to Saturday night in Death Valley and LSU must keep tabs on Daily all night. He's a player who can shine with his legs while also dropping back and delivering a pass if need be.
The Numbers: 712 passing yards / 118.7 YPG / 54.5% / 6 touchdowns / 4 interceptions / 100 carries / 416 rushing yards / 3 touchdowns
Hayden Reed: Running Back
Despite Daily leading the team in carries by a significant margin with 100 on the season, Reed is the true running back on this squad. He's second on the squad in carries (47) and leads the running back room in yards (191).
LSU has seen inconsistency from the defensive line play this season, and facing a unique offense in Army, it's imperative this group monitors the triple option at all times in their offensive attack.
The Numbers: 47 carries / 191 yards / 31.8 YPG / 2 touchdowns / 3 receptions / 20 yards / 3.3 YPG / 0 touchdowns
Quindrelin Hammonds: Defensive Back
The Army pass defense is their bright spot. This group has shown the ability to stop the passing game when needed with senior defensive back Quindrelin Hammonds stepping up in a big way this season.
With a flurry of defensive backs who are more than capable of entering the mix and making a play, Jayden Daniels will be on his toes, but the offensive weapons LSU attains will certainly overmatch the Black Knights.
The Numbers: 21 TKL / 1 INT / 1 PD
