Landen Clark

Clark remains the established backup after earning the job during September evaluations. His relief work against Texas A&M reinforced his role behind Leavitt.

Husan Longstreet

Longstreet remains part of LSU's three-man room and continues to develop behind Leavitt and Clark.

What matters entering McNeese

  • Keeping Leavitt healthy through the nonconference matchup

  • Continuing to develop Clark in meaningful reserve snaps when game flow allows
