The program

Overview

LSU claims national championships in 1958 (Paul Dietzel, with Billy Cannon), 2003 (Nick Saban), 2007 (Les Miles) and 2019 (Ed Orgeron), the last a 15-0 season led by Heisman winner Joe Burrow. Night games in Tiger Stadium, 'Death Valley,' are famously loud. Cannon (1959), Burrow (2019) and Jayden Daniels (2023) are the program's Heisman winners.
