LSU starting center Braelin Moore, who was the Southeastern Conference offensive lineman of the week after the Tigers’ opening win at No. 4 Clemson on Aug. 30, is expected play in No. 3 LSU’s SEC opener against Florida Saturday at Tiger Stadium (6:30 p.m., ABC) after recovering from an ankle injury last week against Louisiana Tech.
“Braelin took all the reps today with the first team. He’s ready to go,” LSU coach Brian Kelly said Thursday after practice.

Moore will be listed as probable for the game. He injured his ankle on the first play of LSU’s win over Tech and left the field. He returned wearing a protective boot on his injured ankle on the sidelines.
Tight end Trey’Dez Green (knee) remains questionable for the game.
“Trey’Dez was out on the field today, catching balls, moving around,” Kelly said. “He’s going to be probably a game time decision. He’s not where we need him to be today, but we still have some time.”
Green has worked on a treadmill and done hydrotherapy.
“He was moving around,” Kelly said later on his weekly radio show. “He did a little bit of work on the field today (Thursday) for the first time in equipment. He’ll catch balls tomorrow (Friday), and then we’ll see how he feels. If he is out this weekend, he’s not going to be out very long. And that’s the good news.”
Reserve true freshman defensive tackle Zion Williams is not expected to play because he is in concussion protocol, Kelly said. Williams played in the opener at Clemson, but did not play against Louisiana Tech.
