EXCLUSIVE: Inside LSU’s MASSIVE ROSTER SHAKEUP as Lane Kiffin & Sam Leavitt Look to Make CFB Playoff

The LSU Tigers reshape their 2026 roster under Lane Kiffin, aiming for SEC dominance with 40 transfers and standout additions like QB Sam Leavitt, RB Dilin Jones and WR Jayce Brown. Can Kiffin’s up-tempo offense and aggressive portal haul vault LSU past Ole Miss and set them up for playoff glory?

Chris Gordy and guest Matt Moscona of Locked On LSU break down Leavitt’s critical foot recovery, rising stars at running back and receiver, and the return of key defensive leaders. The conversation explores LSU’s quarterback situation, the influence of Kiffin’s staff, and how the Tigers plan to handle sky-high expectations—despite national skepticism and fierce trash talk from Ole Miss fans. Plus, get the latest on NCAA Tournament expansion and SEC basketball’s shifting landscape. 76 Teams in the Tournament? Seriously?
