Last season, LSU's game against Florida was far from ideal, with the Gators upsetting the Tigers and conveniently flipping a few recruits in their direction. This year, the LSU Tigers and head coach Brian Kelly are looking to reverse their fortunes.
On Thursday, Rivals reported that the Tigers would host four-star running back KJ Edwards in Baton Rouge on Saturday, when LSU was set to play the Florida Gators.
Edwards, who is currently committed to the Texas A&M Aggies, is the No. 4 running back in the class of 2026 and committed to the Aggies over the Tigers, Texas Longhorns, and other powerhouse programs.
