The LSU Tigers are entering Year 1 of the Lane Kiffin era in 2026 and will wrap up spring practices on Friday. There won’t be a traditional spring game this year, so we won’t get to see the new-look Tigers on the field until this fall.
But there’s still plenty to discuss as LSU gets ready for a long summer ahead of a Sept. 5 Week 1 showdown with Clemson.
ESPN released a piece highlighting the biggest strengths and weaknesses of each top 25 team this week, naming the defensive line as the Tigers’ biggest strength. As for their most-glaring weakness? ESPN’s Andrea Adelson explains why it’s still the offensive line:
Weakness: Offensive line. This was a weak spot a year ago, and to fix it, Lane Kiffin went into the portal — headlining the pickups with Colorado tackle Jordan Seaton. In all, LSU returns two starters and added 11 players to try to overhaul this entire unit. On the offensive line in particular, it is important to find a group that has chemistry right away but expect mixing and matching throughout the spring to find the best rotation to improve this group.
Big-name transfers are all over the LSU roster, including at QB, where former Arizona State standout Sam Leavitt is the new leader of the offense. Will his offensive line be able to keep him upright and healthy? We’ll find out this fall.
Will LSU win the SEC title this season? The Tigers have a 15% chance, per Kalshi:
