The page content is 427 CSS pixels wide, but the viewport is only 412 CSS pixels wide. The following elements fall outside the viewport:
The element <div class="col-xs-12">Copyright © 20…ghts Reserved.</div> falls outside the viewport.
Size tap targets appropriately
Some of the links/buttons on your webpage may be too small for a user to easily tap on a touchscreen. Consider making these tap targets larger to provide a better user experience.
The following tap targets are close to other nearby tap targets and may need additional spacing around them.
The tap target <a href="#myCarousel" class="left carousel-control">Previous</a> and 1 others are close to other tap targets .

lsu.edu Mobile Speed: 45/100

Quick overview:
Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
Your page has 16 blocking script resources and 15 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page.
None of the above-the-fold content on your page could be rendered without waiting for the following resources to load. Try to defer or asynchronously load blocking resources, or inline the critical portions of those resources directly in the HTML.
https://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js
...
Optimize CSS Delivery of the following:
https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto
...
Enable compression
Compressing resources with gzip or deflate can reduce the number of bytes sent over the network.
Enable compression for the following resources to reduce their transfer size by 379.8KiB (77% reduction).
Compressing http://lsu.edu/_resources/css/bootstrap.min.css could save 109.5KiB (83% reduction).
...
Leverage browser caching
Setting an expiry date or a maximum age in the HTTP headers for static resources instructs the browser to load previously downloaded resources from local disk rather than over the network.
Leverage browser caching for the following cacheable resources:
http://lsu.edu/_resources-104-testing/css/ldp/jquery.datetimepicker.css (expiration not specified)
...
Optimize images
Properly formatting and compressing images can save many bytes of data.
Optimize the following images to reduce their size by 94.3KiB (42% reduction).
Compressing http://lsu.edu/images/2015/uppertierpages/LSU5689-meet-LSU.jpg could save 76.8KiB (46% reduction).
...
Prioritize visible content
Your page requires additional network round trips to render the above-the-fold content. For best performance, reduce the amount of HTML needed to render above-the-fold content.
The entire HTML response was not sufficient to render the above-the-fold content. This usually indicates that additional resources, loaded after HTML parsing, were required to render above-the-fold content. Prioritize visible content that is needed for rendering above-the-fold by including it directly in the HTML response.
Only about 61% of the final above-the-fold content could be rendered with the full HTML response .
Minify JavaScript
Compacting JavaScript code can save many bytes of data and speed up downloading, parsing, and execution time.
Minify JavaScript for the following resources to reduce their size by 48.3KiB (36% reduction).
Minifying http://lsu.edu/_resources-104-testing/js/ldp/jquery.datetimepicker.full.js could save 35.5KiB (34% reduction).
...
Minify CSS
Compacting CSS code can save many bytes of data and speed up download and parse times.
Minify CSS for the following resources to reduce their size by 14.4KiB (14% reduction).
Minifying http://lsu.edu/_resources/css/ldp/ouforms-bootstrap.css could save 3.5KiB (12% reduction).
...
Minify HTML
Compacting HTML code, including any inline JavaScript and CSS contained in it, can save many bytes of data and speed up download and parse times.
Minify HTML for the following resources to reduce their size by 9KiB (21% reduction).
Minifying http://lsu.edu/ could save 7.7KiB (21% reduction).
