ESPN recently released an article on the "biggest strengths for college football's top 25 teams." For LSU, writer Mark Schlabach picked the veteran offensive line unit as the Tigers' biggest strength.

12. LSU Tigers
Biggest strength: Offensive line


LSU is going to have a new look on offense in 2024 with Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Jayden Daniels and star receivers Malik Nabers and Brian Thomas Jr. departing for the NFL. One area that won't change for the most part, however, is LSU's offensive line, which was a finalist for the Joe Moore Award as the top unit in the FBS last season. The Tigers have the best duo of offensive tackles in Will Campbell and Emery Jones. Guards Garrett Dellinger and Miles Frazier also opted to come back for one more season, despite having NFL draft grades that probably would have gotten them selected. The only starter who left was center Charles Turner. Collectively, the four returning starters have 83 career starts between them, and each of them has logged more than 700 career snaps. DJ Chester might be the top candidate to replace Turner, but incoming freshman Coen Echols might also get a look. New quarterback Garrett Nussmeier has some massive shoes to fill, but at least he knows he'll have great protection. -- Schlabach

After hearing Kelly comments about House mb a lot of issues were concept etc which was a shame for those players if true…I definitely didn’t think we were gonna be that bad

Have a feeling OL and TE will be strong in future

Offense will look different but will still be very strong. Just need to shore up that d line.

Exactly, we won't see those long QB runs, but we should see some explosive runs from our RBs led by an experienced and strong OL. The pieces are also there at WR & TE to make plays downfield and extend drives. Lot of things to like about this LSU OFF in 24.
