Watch Alabama’s Bryce Young get booed by LSU student section
Bryce Young was welcomed to Tiger Stadium in much the way you would expect.
The Alabama quarterback hit the field for pre-game warm-ups and was showered with boos from the LSU student section ahead of the No. 6 Tide’s game at No. 10 LSU in a key SEC West showdown.
The reception was much different than the praise heaped on the Heisman Trophy winner earlier in the week from LSU coach Brian Kelly, who raved about Crimson Tide quarterback.

Nick Saban is 12-4 against LSU since arriving in Tuscaloosa in 2007.
Meanwhile, Young had a bye week to heal his sprained throwing shoulder ahead of his latest game against a top 25 opponent. Young has thrived against ranked teams, averaging 335.2 yards over nine such games with 22 touchdowns against six interceptions.
Earlier on Saturday, ESPN’s “College GameDay” did a piece on Young, who addressed making Saban laugh during a game, the Tennessee loss and falling to LSU quarterback Jaylen Daniels in Pop Warner football.
