Despite losing a lot of skill-position talent, LSU hasn’t missed much of a beat on offense in 2024. An elite offensive line, anchored by a potential top-five pick in left tackle [autotag]Will Campbell[/autotag], is a major reason why.
Campbell turned in another impressive performance in Saturday’s 34-17 home win over UCLA, registering the nation’s highest pass protection grade of 90.1 according to Pro Football Focus. For his efforts, he’s been named the Outland Trophy National Player of the Week.
It was the first time this season that Campbell has registered a run and pass blocking grade of 80 or above, and he didn’t allow a single pressure on 44 pass attempts on Saturday.

He’s certainly in the mix for the Outland Trophy, given to the top offensive lineman in the nation. The preseason All-American and First-Team All-SEC selection was named to the preseason watch list for the award.
