On3 ranks LSU-USC a top 10 nonconference games of 2024 season

On3’s Jesse Simonton has made a list of the top 10 nonconference games of the 2024 season. LSU’s opening game against USC has made the top 10.

LSU vs USC comes in at No. 3 on the list as there is a lot of hype surrounding the opening weekend game. Brian Kelly has had back-to-back 10-win seasons in his first two years at LSU and USC is still trying to bring back the glory days of the early 2000s.

USC has Lincoln Riley at the helm and his USC team last season followed the same motto as his old Oklahoma teams. They had a powerful offense but their defense was nonexistent. The Trojans gave up 30+ points in eight of their 13 games in 2023. The most they gave up was 52 points to Washington.

LSU will turn to Garrett Nussmeier to lead the Tigers’ offense to greatness this fall. With the changes made to the defensive coaching staff, I expect the Tigers to be a lot better on that side of the ball this season.
