It’s been two years since LSU Football dominated college football and walked away with the 2019 national championship.

A lot has happened in those two years.

The Tigers no longer have defensive coordinator Dave Aranda and passing game coordinator Joe Brady on the sideline. Offensive coordinator Steve Ensminger is retired. And the bulk of the talent that made up LSU’s roster in 2019 is now in the NFL.

Thanks to those changes, the 2020 version of LSU was nowhere close to what we saw in 2019.

Last season, the Tigers struggled on defense.
