SEC Network TV analyst and host Paul Finebaum said LSU football coach Ed Orgeron's job security would be enhanced by the Tigers getting off to a good start in the upcoming season.
"I think it depends on the beginning of the season," Finebaum said on Birmingham's WJOX-FM Monday. "I think everyone knows the schedule. Miami first and then Auburn third.
"I think the question then becomes, 'Should LSU lose both of those, can you even get a thermometer to measure the hot seat?' Because I think you could start seeing similarities to what we had two years ago when Les Miles lost the first game against Wisconsin.
