LSU football defensive back Jardin Gilbert had a costly targeting penalty in Sunday's season-opener against USC.

Gilbert led with the crown of his helmet, hitting Trojans wide receiver Kyron Hudson directly on his helmet after Hudson made a 20-yard catch off a pass from Miller Moss. Hudson made the catch at the 27-yard line with 18 seconds left in the game and the score tied 20-20.

The penalty, however, put the ball at the 13-yard line, with Woody Marks scoring the go-ahead touchdown on the next play. Gilbert was ejected from the game and will face a suspension for the first half of LSU's Week 2 game vs. Nicholls.
