Well, the Tigers have managed to hold on.
It seems like LSU has taken a turn for the better now that Orgeron has been officially let go. I was interested to see how the team would respond knowing these are the last few games of the Orgeron era. It seems as though they have responded positively to the negative news.
LSU is only down 17-7 to the No. 12 Ole Miss Rebels at the half. Here are the halftime stats.
