BATON ROUGE - On Wednesday, a few LSU football players made an after-school meal a little more special. Whit Weeks, Dilin Jones, Faheem Delane and Stephiylan Green spent time at the Raising Cane's "Mothership" for a meet-and greet with the kids of the Big Buddy Program.

The players handed out meals, signed autographs, took pictures and shared stories along with chicken fingers.

After the meet-and-greet, Raising Cane's founder, Todd Graves, took the athletes on a tour of the 30th Birthday Museum.

While the time spent off the field was fun, the players will now turn their attention to LSU's matchup with Texas on Saturday.

Weeks remains "questionable" on LSU's availability report, but he says that he's proud of his teammates for stepping up in his abscense.

"I love these dudes to death. They know that. For them to be able to do what they do, it's no surprise to me or to anybody in the building what we've been able to do on the defensive side of the ball. It's real special," Weeks said.

The Tigers are set to kick off with the Longhorns at 6:30 p.m. on Saturday. That game will be televised on WBRZ.
