LSU Spring Game 2022 Preview
LSU looks to return to national prominence under new head coach Brian Kelly, who shockingly left Notre Dame late in 2021.
“I’m here to win a national championship,” Kelly said via ESPN’s Pete Thamel. “I came down here explicitly for that purpose.”
The Tigers produced two mediocre seasons in 2020 and 201 after a 15-0 national championship run in 2019. LSU dipped to 5-5 in 2020 followed by a 6-7 season in 2021, the first losing season since 1999.
LSU has a four-way quarterback competition going with Garrett Nussmeier, Jayden Daniels, Myles Brennan, and Walker Howard. Nussmeier is the only one among those four to play snaps for the Tigers in 2021. He had 329 yards and two touchdowns in four games.
“I think I’ve learned a lot from last year, getting to play in some real SEC time. I think the biggest thing for me was kind of being more of a manager of an offense,” Nussmeier said via Sports Illustrated’s LSU Country. “For some reason I got this gunslinger approach. I take some shots but I can’t look to do that every play so that’s what I’ve learned, just move the sticks.”
Brennan, once the heir apparent to Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow, looks to regain starter status in 2022. Brennan hasn’t played a snap since 2020 due to injury.
“Physically he’s improved, his body, his conditioning level and all of those had to start with his ability to compete,” Kelly said via LSU Country. “He did a tremendous job leading into spring ball taking care of himself, getting stronger which put him in a position to use a lot of his experience against by in large an inexperienced group.”
Daniels came to LSU this year via the transfer portal. He threw for 2,381 yards and 10 touchdowns versus 10 interceptions in 13 games at Arizona State last year.
Howard, a four-star recruit, looks to establish himself at LSU as a true freshman.
“From day one, I’ve improved so much and that’s how the coaches have told me. I’m gonna hit a wall and it’s just about how you pick up and work through it,” Howard said via LSU Country. “I feel like I’m finally working past that wall and I’m really excited for Saturday and ready to go out and compete.”
