The LSU Tigers opened the 2025 season with College Football Playoff aspirations as the preseason No. 9 team in the AP Top 25 poll.
But now eight games into their college football campaign, the Tigers find themselves with a disappointing 5-3 record
LSU fired now-former head coach Brian Kelly after the team's 49-25 loss to the Texas A&M Aggies on Oct. 25, leaving the program under the operation of interim head coach Frank Wilson.
Wilson will take the sideline for his first game as the Tigers' interim on Saturday night, facing off against the No. 4 Alabama Crimson Tide in Tuscaloosa.
Alabama is fighting for its position in the College Football Playoffs, winning each of its last seven games since opening the year with a Week 1 loss to the Florida State Seminoles.
