A staunch defense that intercepted five passes and an offense that scored on its first seven possession gave the No. 15-ranked LSU football team its 11th-straight victory over Mississippi State, 29-7, in the home opener in Tiger Stadium on Saturday night. LSU (3-0, 2-0 SEC) needed the right foot of placekicker Josh Jasper to secure a 12-0 halftime advantage with a school-record four field goals in the half. After Mississippi State scored on the opening drive of the second half, LSU answered with two touchdowns and a field goal on its next three possessions to improve to 2-0 in Southeastern Conference play. Jasper broke his own school record with five field goals, converting from 44, 32, 51, 37 and 21 yards.
