LSU football roster outlook
All our predictions are based on the Tigers starting these key players:
- QB – Max Johnson, Garrett Nussmeier
- RB – Tyrion Davis-Price, Corey Kiner
- WR – Kayshon Boutte, Brian Thomas Jr., Jaray Jenkins
- TE – Jack Bech, Kole Taylor
LSU had a big decision to make at quarterback, but Myles Brennan's fishing accident resulted in him breaking his non-throwing left arm, and paved the way for Max Johnson to land the starting job. To his credit, Johnson closed out the 2020 campaign with impressive wins over Florida and Ole Miss. The offense is in good hands.
Sophomore receiver Kayshon Boutte had an excellent freshman season with 45 receptions and 735 yards. He's downright explosive, and LSU's rushing attack should be improved from a season ago, with powerful tailback Tyrion Davis-Price leading the way.

Week 1 – LSU lost 38-27 @ UCLA Bruins
- When: Saturday, Sept. 4 @ 8:30 PM on FOX.
- Spread: LSU -3.5 (via DraftKings)
- Moneyline: LSU -180; UCLA +155
- Sportsnaut Prediction: LSU 31, UCLA 14
The UCLA Bruins' domination of the line of scrimmage, exotic defensive coverages and their fans were all too much for LSU to handle in the season opener. Chip Kelly seems to have UCLA football moving in a promising direction after a 38-27 triumph over the Tigers, which is indubitably his signature win as Bruins head coach.
Week 2 – LSU won 34-7 vs. McNeese State Cowboys
- When: Saturday, Sept. 11 @ 8:00 PM on SEC Network
- Sportsnaut Prediction: LSU 51, McNeese State 0
Despite what happened in Los Angeles to kick off the season, LSU knew it could take solace in a tune-up game afterwards. Tigers quarterback Max Johnson was under siege versus UCLA in last week's loss. McNeese State was a good opponent for Johnson to regain confidence against, and he threw for three touchdowns in the easy win.
Week 3 – LSU won 49-21 vs. Central Michigan Chippewas
- When: Saturday, Sept. 18 @ 7:30 PM on SEC Network
- Spread: LSU -19
- Moneyline: Central Michigan +700; LSU -1125
- Over/under: 61
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 45, Central Michigan 10
The Chippewas posted a .500 record in the MAC last year. That's not exactly the stuff that inspires anyone to make a bold prediction that an upset could be on the horizon, particularly at Tiger Stadium. LSU had no problems handling Central Michigan in a dominant victory.
Week 4 – LSU defeated Mississippi State, 28-25
- When: Saturday, Sept. 25 at 12:00 PM
- Spread: LSU -2
- Over/under: 56
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 35, Mississippi State 14
We thought LSU would roll over Mike Leach and the Bulldogs. Late in the fourth quarter, it seemed we were headed that way with the Tigers leading 28-10. But Mississippi State found some late life, failing on the final onside kick attempt and dropping a close one.
Week 5 – LSU loses 24-19 to Auburn Tigers
- When: Saturday, Oct. 2 at 9:00 PM
- Spread: LSU -3.0 (via BetMGM)
- Moneyline: Auburn +145; LSU -175
- Over/Under: 56
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 38, Auburn 27
It was the Bo Nix show in Death Valley Saturday as the Auburn Tigers quarterback bobbed and weaved his way through the LSU Tiger defense for the narrow five-point victory. The LSU defense missed several tackles and quarterback Max Johnson was unable to convert on a fourth-down try with just one minute remaining to seal the deal.
Week 6 – LSU loses 42-21 to Kentucky Wildcats
- When: Saturday, Oct. 9 at 7:30 PM
- Spread: Kentucky -3
- Moneyline: LSU +135; Kentucky -165
- Over/under: 51
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 27, Kentucky 30
If you asked us to predict this game before the year began, we'd say LSU by 20, but (16) Kentucky remains unbeaten and the Tigers have shown some weaknesses, particularly on offense. This one could come down to the wire, but Kentucky gets the edge playing at home.
Week 7 – LSU Tigers win 49-42 vs Florida Gators
- When: Saturday, Oct. 16 at 12:00 PM
- Spread: Florida -11.5 (via DraftKings)
- Moneyline: Florida -420; LSU +325
- Over/under: 59.5
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 20, Florida 30
The Tiger defense made all the difference here. Forcing Gator quarterbacks to throw four interceptions was enough for LSU to maintain the lead. Tyrion Davis-Price set an LSU school record for the most rushing yards in one game with 287, surpassing Leonard Fournette in the process.
Week 8 – LSU loses 31-17 to Ole Miss Rebels
- When: Saturday, Oct. 23 at 3:30 PM
- Spread: Ole Miss -8.5
- Moneyline: LSU +250; Ole Miss -320
- Over/under: 76.5
- Sportsnaut prediction: Ole Miss 37, LSU 31
A week after announcing Ed Orgeron wouldn't be back next season, after being the first to score, the Tigers couldn't get their offense going against Ole Miss. They couldn't run the ball and they couldn't stop the Rebels as they ran for 266 yards of their own.
Week 9 BYE
Week 10 – LSU loses 20-14 to Alabama Crimson Tide
- When: Saturday, Nov. 6 at 7:00 PM on ESPN
- Spread: Alabama -29 (via DraftKings)
- Moneyline: LSU +2200; Alabama -6500
- Over/under: 66
- Sportsnaut prediction: Alabama 42, LSU 16
LSU did well to hang with a perennially-tough Alabama Crimson Tide squad, perhaps the rivalry helped breed some better competition. Max Johnson struggled to connect with his receivers, but Nick Saban's team had more talent.
Week 11 – LSU loses 16-13 to Arkansas Razorbacks
- When: Saturday, Nov. 13 at 7:30 PM
- Spread: Arkansas -2.5
- Moneyline: Arkansas -145; LSU +120
- Over/under: 59
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 41, Arkansas 35
LSU quarterback Max Johnson was benched and his replacement Garrett Nussmeier wasn't any better. Still, it took an overtime kick for Arkansas to take home the Golden Boot trophy, but perhaps it's more fitting that way.
Week 12 – LSU wins 27-14 over Louisiana Monroe Warhawks
- When: Saturday, Nov. 20 at 9:00 PM
- Spread: LSU -28.5
- Moneyline: Louisiana-Monroe +1500; LSU -5000
- Over/under: 58.5
- Sportsnaut prediction: LSU 44, Louisiana Monroe 13
The Tigers came into their matchup with the Warhawks angry, losing three consecutive games. Freshman receiver Malik Nabers was en fuego, racking up a new career-high 143 receiving yards as Max Johnson had another 300-yard game, his fourth of the season.
Week 13 – LSU wins 27-24 over Texas A&M Aggies
- When: Saturday, Nov. 27 at 7:00 PM
- Spread: Texas A&M -6.5
- Moneyline: Texas A&M -250; LSU +200
- Over/under: 45.5
- Sportsnaut prediction: Texas A&M 34, LSU 20
Seeking their sixth win of the year to gain bowl eligibility, the LSU Tigers narrowly beat the Aggies thanks to a last-minute touchdown throw from Max Johnson. It was a great way to provide momentum heading, allowing them to get to a bowl game, even though Ed Orgeron won't be coaching.
