It is becoming an all-too-familiar scene for the LSU Tigers this season, really the last 16 games. The team led by head coach Ed Orgeron getting beat in the trenches on both sides of the football.
The Tigers had their collective backs against the ball needing a win in Lexington, Kentucky. The last time they played at Kroger Field the Tigers lost 43-37 in triple overtime. They would still go on to win the national championship that season, definitely won’t be the case this year.
The Tigers are now 8-8 in the last two seasons under Orgeron since the perfect 15-0 campaign during the 2019 season. At LSU .500 football just isn’t going to cut it. If you thought the whispers surrounding the head coach’s job were loud before, they might be screaming now.
LSU lost by three scores to Kentucky for the first time since 1999, following the season the team made a change at head coach. They went with Nick Saban and the rest is history.
