DALLAS -- Despite losing Heisman Trophy quarterback Jayden Daniels and two NFL first-round draft picks at receiver, LSU coach Brian Kelly isn't bracing for a drop-off on offense.
The Tigers led the country in scoring offense (45.5 points) and total offense (543.5 yards) last season, but Daniels was taken No. 2 overall in the NFL draft and his top two receivers, Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr., were taken No. 6 and No. 21 respectively.
That said, when Kelly was asked Monday by ESPN's social media team at the SEC media days what he was most looking forward to in Tiger Stadium this season, he said confidently, "Scoring a s--- load of touchdowns."
