LSU’s undefeated national championship season puts them in the debate as the greatest college football team ever. Coach Ed Orgeron, who was part of national championship teams as an assistant at Miami and USC, says it’s for the media to decide if the Tigers are the best team
Orgeron says he’s looking forward to a big recruiting weekend.
Tigers fans lined the streets outside the LSU Football Operations building to greet their heroes returning home from their triumphant 42-25 win over Clemson last night in the Dome. Here’s the moment those first sirens announcing the team’s arrival could be heard by the roughly 300 fans who showed up to cheer on the returning team.
Many fans lined up hours ahead of time to get a good view of the team as they made their way back to the Capital from the Crescent City.
The Bayou Bengals are getting a parade. Baton Rouge and LSU are working on the details of a parade for the national champion Tigers that will begin at LSU’s school of music on Saturday.
While many throughout the state may be showing love for Coach Ed Orgeron, no one is more excited about his success than those in the Larose area where he grew up. Lafourche Parish Sheriff’s Lt. Brennan Matherne says the area already bleeds purple and gold…
Cut 3 (10) “…that national title.”
Clemson may have had a rough game as a whole, but Jennings native, running back Travis Etienne played well with 114 total yards and a touchdown on five yards a carry. Etienne is NFL draft-eligible after completing his third season in college. This could be his last hurrah in college, but he’s not ready to start reminiscing just yet.
He’s ranked as the top running back prospect, and a lock for the 1st round in the 2020 draft, if he decides to declare.
