Through seven games, the LSU Tigers already have two conference losses. Owning a 5-2 overall record and a 2-2 mark in SEC play, Brian Kelly and company essentially have to win out to even have a shot at making the College Football Playoff. The remaining schedule presents massive opportunity, starting with a home game against No. 3 Texas A&M this Saturday night.
LSU has yet to make the College Football Playoff with Kelly at the helm of the program. Fans are reaching a boiling point with Kelly, but his massive buyout may be saving him from being fired at this point in time.
