Aside from quarterback, revamping the offensive line is LSU's biggest need heading into the 2026 season. The Tiger O line struggled mightily and battled injuries all throughout the 2025 season, which led to a vastly underwhelming season offensively.
Now, a total of 6 LSU offensive linemen have decided to enter the portal, including 4 of its 5 starters from this past season. That means Kiffin and new OL coach Eric Wolford have their work cut out for them. As Kiffin and his staff continue navigating the transfer portal, Tennessee OL Lance Heard is one player to target.
