BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) -Backup quarterback Ryan Perrilloux and linebacker Derrick Odom are not expected to play for No. 3 LSU against No. 17 Alabama on Saturday because of their part in a nightclub brawl.
Coach Les Miles said Monday they will not practice this week.
“We will prepare to play without these guys,” Miles said.
No one was arrested in the fight near the LSU campus early Friday when Perrilloux and Odom got into a shoving match with a group of bouncers, the police report said.
Brent McClellan, owner of the Varsity nightclub, said Perriloux and Odom refused to leave at the 2 a.m. closing time, and the scuffle began when bouncers forced them into a parking lot, according to the report.
Perrilloux and Odom gave a different account. Odom told police the two players “began fighting off the bouncers” to protect themselves and their girlfriends.
