Jordan Jefferson blames playcalling, lack of adjustments for LSU’s poor showing vs. Alabama
LSU quarterback Jordan Jefferson had a miserable showing in the National Championship Game against Alabama. The senior went 11/17 for 53 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. The team amassed just five first downs and fewer than 100 total yards in the 21-0 loss. There were cries for Jarrett Lee to replace Jefferson at quarterback.

Introducing The Class of 2013: Defense
After our first look at the Class of 2013 on the offensive side of the ball, it's now time to take a look at the defensive players on LSU's radar. DTLouisiana does not have a ton to offer at the defensive tackle position. However, Tevin Lawson out of Denham Springs holds an early offer from LSU and it sounds like just a matter of time before he commits to the Tigers. Lawson...

A Look At 2012 Roster Numbers
With National Signing Day in the books, I thought I'd take a look at the 2012 roster in terms of numbers. I made a few assumptions, which I outline below. And I put LSU at 89 scholarships for the fall right now, not counting John Thomas. We always see some natural attrition in the off-season, whether due to injury, grades, discipline, transfer, etc. So LSU seems well positioned...
