LSU is entering Year 4 of the Brian Kelly era in 2025, and while the Tigers have gone 29-11 since Kelly left Notre Dame for Baton Rouge, there’s still a sense of dissatisfaction among the fanbase.
That’s not to say that Kelly’s on the hot seat, but he was expected to have LSU a little farther along in the process by now. Despite some signs of life after a loss to USC in Las Vegas gave birth to one of the most memorable rants (and memes) of the season, the Tigers couldn’t quite piece it together later in the year.
So what’s the outlook for 2025, and what could hold the Tigers back from success? According to ESPN, who is taking a close look at each of its post-spring Top 25 teams, the answer could be the offensive line.
Here’s what Harry Lyles Jr. said:
I don’t know that LSU has to necessarily worry about the offensive line because of moves made this offseason, but it has to be something to keep an eye on just because of the magnitude of the losses. The Tigers had one of the best tackle duos in all of college football last season in Will Campbell and Emery Jones, who were first- and third-round NFL draft picks. They lost four starters across the line in total. DJ Chester and Tyree Adams are back in different spots, while Brian Kelly added Braelin Moore from Virginia Tech.
Garrett Nussmeier enjoyed tremendous protection in 2024 as the Tigers’ offensive front yielded just 16 sacks in 2024, one of the lowest totals in the country. How the unit gels in 2025 could go a long way in determining the team’s fortunes.
LSU will open the 2025 season against Clemson in Week 1.
