LSU Coach Les Miles explained in a post-game discussion with Emily Villere that Towson was a much better team than the LSU Tigers had anticipated. Miles said plainly, "We've got to protect our quarterback."

Coach Miles also talked about looking forward to playing the Florida Gators in the swamp, saying, "Mettenburger will have everything he needs to continue the drive."
