ThrowbackThursday to one of the GREATEST football seasons of all time LSU #GeauxTigers
The 2019 LSU Tigers football season was a historic ride that redefined college football greatness. Led by head coach Ed Orgeron, this team made history in ways that still resonate with fans today. The Tigers went 15-0, claiming the coveted national championship and cementing their place as one of the most dominant teams ever to step onto the gridiron.
At the heart of LSU’s success was quarterback Joe Burrow, who had one of the most prolific seasons in college football history. Burrow set records left and right, throwing for over 5,600 yards and 60 touchdowns, earning the Heisman Trophy in the process. His connection with his receiving corps—especially Ja’Marr Chase, who won the Biletnikoff Award—was simply unstoppable. The offense was a juggernaut, averaging over 48 points per game, and they absolutely decimated defenses throughout the season.
But it wasn’t just the offense that made this season legendary. LSU’s defense, led by stars like Grant Delpit and Derek Stingley Jr., showed up when it mattered most, with clutch performances against high-powered offenses like Alabama, Georgia, and Clemson. In the national championship game, LSU defeated Clemson 42-25 in a high-intensity battle that showcased both offensive firepower and defensive resilience.
What set this season apart wasn’t just the talent on the field—it was the culture of belief and relentless drive that permeated every aspect of the team. Orgeron’s leadership, the intensity of the players, and the undying support of LSU fans created a magical season that will be remembered as one of the best in college football history. Geaux Tigers! #LSU #GeauxTigers #Champions
