LSU Will Battle Baylor in Texas Bowl

12/9/2024

TLDR: In a thrilling football matchup, LSU Tigers are set to face the Baylor Bears at the Kinder’s Texas Bowl hosted at NRG Stadium in Houston, kicking off at 2:30 pm CT on December 31st. This matchup follows a season where LSU faced unexpected challenges, including four losses and missed opportunities that kept them from the playoff field. Despite these setbacks, LSU stands on stronger ground now compared to three years ago when they suffered under Ed Orgeron. With the guidance of Brian Kelly, the Tigers have secured consecutive bowl victories and aim to extend that streak. The task of replacing a Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback has been formidable for LSU, but they remain focused on pursuing a fifth national title. Improvements in their defensive line offer hope, albeit challenges like key decommitments remind the team of the roadblocks ahead. A potential bowl win could boost recruiting efforts and future prospects significantly. Brian Kelly’s Tigers are in position to make a statement and generate momentum for the coming seasons, ringing in the New Year with victory in sight.


Folks, mark your calendars and grab your tickets! LSU is set to tussle with Baylor in the Kinder’s Texas Bowl. This thrilling game is gonna kick off on December 31st at NRG Stadium in Houston. It’s a mighty fine way to round out the year with some Southern football action. The anticipation is building, and fans of both teams are surely in a tizzy as they gear up to support their beloved squads until the final whistle.

Now, we all know this season wasn’t the smooth ride many of us Tigers fans may have hoped for. With four losses shadowing our season, it’s fair to say that LSU didn’t quite live up to early hopes. Remember that season opener against USC? That was a real head-scratcher. Could’ve been the turning point to set us on the playoff path, but alas, the cards fell differently. But I tell ya, these Tigers aren’t the same as in those tough final days of Ed Orgeron.

In the capable hands of Coach Brian Kelly, LSU has witnessed a glimmer of resurgence. Post-Orgeron, LSU has steered clear of despair and instead charted a course through consecutive bowl victories. We’re lookin’ to make it three in a row, y’all! Kelly’s really got his eyes on continuing this winning streak—maybe even taking us towards that fifth national title one day. His style and strategic mind have got Tigers fans buzzing with hope for the future.

One aspect where we’ve seen noteworthy improvement is on the defensive front. While there have been some pivotal setbacks, like losing recruits such as LaJesse Harrold, that defensive line’s been beefing up! Yet, there’s more to do, especially reeling in that top talent who might be eyeing sunnier states. A win in this bowl ain’t just a trophy for the cabinet; it’s a beacon for recruits eying a future with the Tigers.

As we draw closer to game day, this matchup against Baylor signals a fresh start and a chance to cap off the year on a high. These Tigers have the power to solidify their resurgence under Kelly’s gaze, proving that LSU can stand proudly amongst the elite. Let’s gather our kin, fire up some gumbo, and enjoy the spectacle of college football!
