Former LSU HC Issues Blunt Reality Check to Brian Kelly Before Tigers' 2025 Season
While most college football programs would be happy to finish 9-4 or 10-3, which were the results for the LSU Tigers over the last two seasons, the expectations for the SEC powerhouse are always very high. The Tigers last won a national championship in 2019 and have produced two Heisman winners in the past decade. Since his arrival ahead of the 2022 college football season, head coach Brian Kelly has compiled a 29-11 record, but that still may not be good enough for the decision-makers inside this program. Advertisement Former LSU head coach Ed Orgeron appeared on "XL Primetime" to discuss LSU football and the lofty expectations that are likely weighing upon Kelly. "Expectations at LSU are No. 1 or nothing! I mean, that's it! LSU expects you to win the national championship. They don't expect you to win it every year, but Coach Saban won it in his third year, Les Miles won it in his third year, and I won it in my third year. LSU Tigers head coach Brian Kelly. Denny Medley-Imagn Images "I think (Kelly) has a really good team, a really good quarterback in Garrett Nussmeier. He's got a tough opener in Clemson. The expectations bring on a lot of pressure, especially when you haven't won a championship yet. The pressure there is to win a championship." Advertisement Orgeron began at LSU before the 2015 season as the team's defensive line coach. He was named the interim head coach after Miles was fired early in the 2016 season. In Orgeron's third full season as the team's head coach, he led the Tigers to a perfect 15-0 record and secured LSU's fourth national championship. Over the next two seasons, the wheels came off for the Tigers as they compiled an 11-11 record with back-to-back .500 records. Kelly was hired as Orgeron's successor after more than a decade leading Notre Dame. In 12 years with the Fighting Irish, Kelly led the college football powerhouse to a 92-39 record. In a recent way-too-early college football rankings, ESPN's Mark Schlabach lists the Tigers at No. 6. He believes LSU should be in the mix for an SEC championship.

Brian Kelly Dealt Blunt Reality Check Amid Growing Hype Around LSU
Brian Kelly Dealt Blunt Reality Check Amid Growing Hype Around LSU originally appeared on Athlon Sports. There is a lot of hype surrounding the LSU Tigers and head coach Brian Kelly ahead of the 2025 college football season. However, that's to be expected for a SEC powerhouse like the Tigers. Advertisement Despite that, one college football analyst believes everyone should pump the brakes because Kelly has yet to accomplish much of anything since his arrival in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. While on the Paul Finebaum Show, 247Sports analyst Brad Crawford explained his reasons why, if anything, Kelly should be on the hot seat. "Brian Kelly hit the mark. He knows this, on paper, is the best roster he's had. For me, LSU's big thing this summer has been 'Don't buy into the hype. Don't read the press clippings. Don't watch 'The Paul Finebaum Show,'" said Crawford Per the 247Sports' 2025 transfer portal team rankings, LSU had the top class with 18 commitments. The Tigers paired that with the No. 10 recruiting class in 2025, which included two five-star and 19 four-star commitments. Advertisement With all those incoming players, LSU's roster is chock-full of new talent, and it's reflected in the added expectations surrounding the program. "LSU is a team that should get to the (College Football) Playoff. Now 'should' is not 'would' or 'is it possible' because we've seen the last five years, LSU has not won a season opener," Crawford continued. Kelly arrived with the Tigers ahead of the 2022 college football season, so this losing streak in opening games stretches beyond his tenure. LSU has lost to USC and Florida State twice over the last three years under Kelly. LSU Tigers head coach Brian Chenault-Imagn Images The Tigers lost to UCLA in 2021 and to Mississippi State in 2020. LSU is travelling to Clemson to kick off the 2025 season on Aug. 30. Advertisement "With [quarterback] Garrett Nussmeier, a guy I think will be the No. 1 pick in next year's draft," said Crawford. "(Kelly has) got to get it done this time around or Brian Kelly is going to be on the hot seat by November." Finebaum responded to Crawford's bold statement by saying that Kelly is going to be a regular guest on his show throughout the season, and he would use Crawford's quote to see what Kelly thinks about it. LSU is ranked at No. 6 in ESPN's latest way-too-early college football rankings, and analyst Mark Schlabach shares a similar sentiment with Crawford that the Tigers should be "in the thick of the SEC title and CFP races."

How to Watch LSU Baseball Try to Keep Its Season Alive Against Little Rock
How to Watch LSU Baseball Try to Keep Its Season Alive Against Little Rock originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The LSU Tigers will host the Little Rock Trojans in Alex Box Stadium on Monday night with the winner advancing to the Super Regional round. Despite hosting, the Tigers will actually be the visiting team in this game. Advertisement On Sunday, the Tigers had the chance to close things out against the four-seeded Trojans, but were dominated, losing a 10-4 contest. Now, it's a winner takes all on Monday night. Jay JohnsonJim Dedmond This is a must-win game for a lot of reasons. Obviously they need to win to keep their season alive, but if LSU can beat Little Rock, they get to host the next round of the NCAA Tournament as well. Clemson, the 11th overall seed in the tournament, was on the other side of their bracket, but the Tigers were eliminated in their regional, meaning LSU would get to host West Virginia next week if they were to win tonight. A slew of top teams, including Vanderbilt and Texas, have already been eliminated as well, making the path to a national title a bit easier. Jay Johnson won a national championship in 2023, but followed that up with a disappointing season in 2024 where the Tigers lost in the Regional round. He must win tonight if he wants to avoid back-to-back first round eliminations. Advertisement The Tigers still have Casan Evans and Zac Cowan available for tonight's game, so on paper they should have the advantage on the mound. The offense just needs to back them up. Here's how you can watch the Tigers take on the Trojans in tonight's must win contest: Time: Monday, Jun. 2nd at 8 p.m. CT TV: ESPN2 Streaming: ESPN+ The first pitch of tonight's game will be at 8 p.m. CT. You can watch the game on ESPN2 or on ESPN+ through the ESPN App. Related: Livvy Dunne is Officially a Supermodel after Walking the Runway at Miami's Swim Week Related: Livvy Dunne in Frightening Video says 'I Fear That I'm Being Stalked and I Don't Know What to Do' This story was originally reported by Athlon Sports on Jun 2, 2025, where it first appeared.
