Its been a long August for most LSU fans. But it has been even longer for the LSU football team. Two-a-days, 100 degree temperatures, nearly 100% humidity, and a more intense coaching staff has made this year's fall camp one of the most brutal in the Les Miles era. LSU fans believe it will pay off. The players and coaches know that it will. After three weeks of camp and 3 scrimmages, the staff and players have an idea of who is going to play at UNC. Below is a two deep depth chart. Keep in mind that a depth chart is always fluid and changes can take place. There are also some guys that will see the field on special teams that I have not mentioned. There is also stiff competition at a few positions that can lead to changes before the UNC game. Here is a look at who LSU fans can expect to see on the field at the Georgia Dome.
