It was announced over the weekend that Ed Orgeron will not return as LSU’s head coach in 2022.
Orgeron is expected to finish out the 2021 season, but the Tigers will have a new head coach in 2022.
Under Coach O. the Tigers won the College Football Playoff championship in 2019 led by Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Joe Burrow.
Last year, LSU went 5-5 in the pandemic-shortened season. The Tigers opened this season with a loss at UCLA, won their next three games and then fell to Auburn at home in Week 5. LSU followed that with a 42-21 loss to Kentucky in Week 6 but rebounded Saturday with a 49-42 win over Florida.
