LSU star defensive tackle Maason Smith is expected to play his first game in more than a year Saturday against Grambling.
LSU lost to Florida State handily, 45-24, in Orlando, and dropped from No. 5 to 14 in the Associated Press Poll.
Missing Smith's 6-foot-6, 315-pound frame in the middle of the defense, the Tigers gave up 135 yards rushing and had no sacks. "This is a total failure from a coaching standpoint and a player standpoint that we have to obviously address and we have to own," Kelly said after the loss."I know adversity is always going to strike at some time in this game, and this is our first real piece of adversity that we have to address. I'm confident our guys and our coaches will rally in the manner that they need to.
