Brian Kelly’s first two seasons on the Bayou have not gone perfectly, but he has performed well. The Tigers have won 10 games for two years in a row and LSU had the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback on their team last year.
Recently, a quarterback who won a national championship during his time at Alabama stated that he believes Kelly has a chance to win a national championship while at LSU. To get there, LSU will have to run a gauntlet like never before as Texas and Oklahoma are preparing to join the SEC. Here is what Greg McElroy had to say about Kelly’s chances.
“I think Les Miles is a solid coach, I don’t think he’s elite. I think Ed Orgeron is a solid coach, I don’t think he’s elite. I think Brian Kelly is elite,” McElroy said on “Always College Football,” per On3. “That’s why I think the percentage chance that he will win a national championship at LSU is 50%. Now remember, people are going to hear that they’re going to say ‘50%, I mean, that seems a little low, or perhaps seems a little high. Winning a national championship is outrageously difficult. Outrageously difficult.”
I am not a betting man but those seem like pretty good odds to me.
