Beware: Beavers back on LSU schedule

I take it Coach John Brady didn't attend the LSU football home opener back in 2004 when the Oregon State Beavers gave everyone in Tiger Stadium a scare before losing 22-21 in overtime.

Turns out Brady and the Beavers have agreed to face each other on the court on Dec. 17 in Corvalis.

"It is, without question, the most exciting home nonconference schedule that we've had," Beavers coach Jay John said. "We're looking to have a nonconference schedule that is more tilted toward home games on an annual basis, plus hosting a tournament that we hope becomes an annual event."

And this game is not taking place in Baton Rouge because ... ?

One former Tiger who played in that memorable Oregon State game, Cameron Vaughn, gets a nice write up from Denver TV station KCNC.

"Familiarity with a coach, understanding of the system -- which Vaughn says has "a similar base package" to the one in which he played at LSU -- and his ability and willingness to play at any linebacker slot and on special teams are attributes that he hopes will result in achieving his first professional goal: to make the 53-man roster."

The coach mentioned above is former LSU assistant Kirk Doll who now coaches the linebackers for the Broncos.

For the record, Vaughn went undrafted in this year's NFL Draft.
