Predicting the Outcome of LSU Football's Schedule With Alabama, Oklahoma Remaining

The LSU Tigers remain the talk of the town after parting ways with head coach Brian Kelly on Sunday, but with four regular season games remaining, it's about finishing the year strong in Baton Rouge.

Interim coach Frank Wilson is calling the shots for the Bayou Bengals after being given the nod following Kelly's firing where he's rejuvenated the locker room.

The Louisiana native understands what it means to lead the LSU Tigers week in and week out with an opportunity to close the 2025 season strong with matchups against Alabama, Arkansas, Western Kentucky and Oklahoma on the docket.

“I chose to come back here because it’s a very, very unique place; there’s no place like LSU. I’ve worked at universities in this conference, across this country, and there’s something about the people here," Wilson said on Tuesday. "And so, when you speak of LSU, you can talk about the beautiful stadium, the pantheon, right? The concrete —this beautiful facility we’re in. LSU’s not bricks and mortar, it’s the people.

"It’s the people who make LSU what it is. And we live and we thrive in a people society that, as we evoke into relationships, it cuts deep. And so it’s totally different than another school where you just go to work, that you become a part of it.”
