LSU Football: Kept opponents out of the end zone in 2016

Related Topics: LSU Tigers football

LSU football is built on defense, and with Ed Orgeron taking over as interim and now full-time head coach, the defense appeared to get even better. The Tigers have one of the best defenses in the country nearly every season.

In the last eight seasons, 2013 and 2015 are the only years that LSU has allowed more than 20 points per game. The Tigers led the nation in 2011, allowing just 11.3 points per game. The Tigers return just five starters on this year’s defense, but they always seem to reload with talent. And that leads us to no.
