3 Ed Orgeron Head Overall Record: LSU Record: 8-2 (Second year) Ed Orgeron, who led the Tigers to a 5-2 mark as interim coach over the final two months of the 2016 season was named LSU s permanent head football coach on Nov. 26, 2016, two days after the Tigers defeated Texas A&M, to finish the regular season with a 7-4 mark. Orgeron, a native of Larose, Louisiana, is LSU s 33rd head football coach, and the first Louisiana native to serve as head coach of the Tigers since West Monroe native Jerry Stovall held the position for four seasons in the early 1980s. Orgeron, who has also served as head coach at Ole Miss and Southern Cal, is 12-4 in his past 16 games as a head coach. Overall, Orgeron has a overall mark as a collegiate head coach, which includes a 6-2 record at LSU and a 6-2 mark as Southern Cal s interim coach in Of Orgeron s six wins in his LSU debut season, four came against Southeastern Conference foes and all were by double-digits. In his first game as LSU s permanent head coach, Orgeron guided the Tigers to a 29-9 win over No. 13 Louisville and its Heisman Trophy quarterback Lamar Jackson in the Buffalo Wild Wings Citrus Bowl. The win over Louisville capped a remarkable turnaround for the Tigers under Orgeron, who assumed the role as interim coach of the Tigers a day after a disappointing setback at Auburn. Orgeron wasted little time in getting the attention of the Tigers as he immediately instilled energy and enthusiasm into the program, shortened practices with crisp, high intensity workouts, kept the players fresh with more time in the meeting room and held the players accountable for all areas of the program. With the One Team. One Heartbeat motto, the Tigers seemingly became a different team overnight and the results that LSU sought soon followed. As the head coach of the Tigers, Orgeron said he was going to flip the script and he assigned a theme for the daily practices. LSU s practices have a descriptive name for each day of the week, one of the ways that Orgeron and his staff hold the players accountable and focused both prior to and during the workout. The daily practice nicknames are as follows: Tell the Truth Monday, Competition Tuesday, Turnover Wednesday, No Repeat Thursday and Focus Friday. Orgeron s first duty as interim head coach was to appoint veteran assistant and former LSU quarterback Steve Ensminger from tight ends coach to offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach. The move paid immediate dividends as Ensminger injected life into the Tiger s offense by diversifying the play calling and bringing a culture of inclusion to the offensive staff room. In eight games under Orgeron, LSU set offensive records for most yards in an SEC game (634 vs. Missouri), longest scoring play from scrimmage (Derrius Guice 96-yard TD run vs. Arkansas), and twice set the school single-game rushing record (Leonard Fournette 284 yards vs. Ole Miss, Derrius Guice 285 yards vs. Texas A&M). Defensively, LSU held opponents scoreless for 15 of 32 quarters under Orgeron and limited the opposition to an average of 15.3 points per game over the eight contests. In 12 games, LSU allowed only 16 touchdowns all season, which led the nation. The Tigers also gave up just 1.3 TDs a contest, also first nationally. Orgeron originally joined the Tiger staff in 2015 as defensive line coach, before adding the title of recruiting coordinator in the spring of Prior to joining the LSU staff, Orgeron s last coaching stop came at Southern Cal where he served as recruiting coordinator and defensive line coach for the Trojans for four years ( ). Orgeron was elevated to interim head coach at USC for the final eight games of the 2013 season, leading the Trojans to a 6-2 mark over that span. Orgeron served two stints at Southern Cal, the first as the Trojans defensive line coach from 1998 to Orgeron coached under Paul Hackett at USC for three years from 1998 to 2000 and was one of just a handful of coaches retained by Pete Carroll when he took over as the Trojans head coach in THE ORGERON FILE Year at LSU: Third (second as head coach) Birthdate: July 27, 1961, in Larose, La.

On the field, Orgeron was part of a Southern Cal staff that led the Trojans to a 12-1 mark and an AP National Championship in 2003 and a 13-0 record and another national title in Orgeron left USC in 2005 to become the head coach at Ole Miss, where he went in three years with Rebels from Orgeron spent the 2008 season coaching the defensive line for the New Orleans Saints and then joined Tennessee as defensive line coach and recruiting coordinator in He returned to Southern Cal following the 2009 season. Orgeron made a name for himself as a top defensive line coach at the University of Miami from , where he coached eight All-Americans, including NFL first rounders Cortez Kennedy, Russell Maryland and Warren Sapp. In 1988, he was a graduate assistant at Miami, working with the defensive line. During his tenure, the Hurricanes won the national championship twice (1989 and 1991), finished second in the AP poll once (1988) and third twice (1990 and 1992) while appearing in five New Year s Day bowls (1989 Orange, 1990 Sugar, 1991 Cotton, 1992 Orange, 1993 Sugar). Orgeron also was a graduate assistant at Northwestern (La.) State, his alma mater, in 1984 and McNeese State in 1985, working with the defensive line at both schools, then was an assistant strength coach at Arkansas for two years ( ). As a player, Orgeron was a four-year starter on the defensive line for Northwestern State, captaining the Demons as a senior. He received his bachelor s degree in liberal arts from Northwestern State in He starred in football, basketball and track at South Lafourche High in Galliano, La. On the big screen, Orgeron played himself in the 2009 Oscar-nominated movie, The Blind Side. Born July 27, 1961, he and his wife, Kelly, have three sons, Tyler, and twins Parker and Cody. Tyler is a member of the LSU football support staff, while twins Parker and Cody are entering their second season as part of the McNeese State football team.

Stovall and the Tigers lost to Florida State, 40-35, to open the 1983 season. 4 Prior to Stovall, the last time LSU was coached by a Louisiana native came from when Homer native Gaynell Tinsley was coach of the Tigers. 4 Orgeron, Stovall and Tinsley are the only Louisiana natives to serve as head coach of the Tigers in the SEC era.

Chattanooga, Orgeron Begins New Tradition with Two No. 18 s 4 Senior defensive lineman Christian LaCouture was awarded the prestigious No. 18 during the spring after electing to return to Baton Rouge for a fifth season. 4 LaCouture began a new tradition of two No. 18s as senior John David Moore was selected to wear the number on the offensive side. It marked the first time since the tradition began in 2003 that two players have worn the number. 4 The prestigious No. 18 began when, in 2003, quarterback Matt Mauck guided LSU to its first national championship since His number became synonymous with success both on and off the field as well as a selfless attitude that has become the epitome of being an LSU football player. 4 Here is a look at the previous players to wear No. 18: Years Player Position 2003 Matt Mauck QB Jacob Hester RB Richard Dickson TE 2010 Richard Murphy RB 2011 Brandon Taylor S 2012 Bennie Logan DT 2013 Lamin Barrow LB 2014 Terrence Magee RB Tre Davious White CB Guice Joins Elite SEC Company With Two 250-Yard Rushing Games in With a pair of 250-yard rushing games in 2016, RB Derrius Guice joined elite SEC company as he along with Moe Williams of Kentucky are the only two players in league history to have two 250-yard rushing games in the same season. Williams did it in 1995 with 299 yards vs. South Carolina and 272 vs. Cincinnati. 4 Guice had 252 yards vs. Arkansas in week 9 and then followed that with a record-setting day of 285 yards vs. Texas A&M in week Guice joins Williams are joined by Auburn s Bo Jackson and Georgia s Herschel Walker as the only four players in SEC history with two 250-yard games to their credit in a career. Guice Breaks Single-Game Rushing Mark, Becomes First LSU Player With Two 250-Plus Yard Rushing Games in Same Season 4 In the regular season finale against Texas A&M, running back Derrius Guice broke Leonard Fournette s LSU single-game rushing record by a yard with 285 and four touchdowns in LSU s win over the Aggies. 4 Guice carried the ball 37 times in the victory and out-rushed the entire Texas A&M unit by himself as he became the first LSU player in program history to have two games of 250 yards or more when coupled with his 252 against Arkansas just two weeks prior. 4 In SEC history, he is only the fourth player ever to do so joining the likes of Herschel Walker, Bo Jackson and Moe Williams. LSU is DBU 4 With two first team All-America defensive backs in 2016, LSU can easily back up its claim as being DBU. With the addition of Tre Davious White and Jamal Adams, LSU has now produced 10 first team All-American defensive backs since Overall, LSU claims 14 first team All-America defensive backs, including three-time selection Tommy Casanova (1969, 1970, 1971) and two-time pick Corey Webster (2003, 2004). 4 In terms of the NFL, since 2007 LSU has had more defensive backs selected in the NFL Draft (17) than any other team in the nation. Of LSU s 17 NFL Draft picks since 2007, six have been first round picks and five came in either the second or third round. LSU Welcomes Mike VII to Start Season 4 LSU introduced the former Harvey as Mike VII on the first day of the fall semester, August 21, after a 10-month search for a new Tiger. 4 Mike VII is a Siiberian-Bengal male Tiger and was donated to LSU from a sanctuary in Okeechobee, Fla., called Wild at Heart Wildlife Center. 4 Mikes IV, V and VI were also donated to LSU from rescue facilities. LSU has not purchased a tiger since Mike III in 1958, and LSU does not support the for-profit breeding of tigers. 4 Here s a look at notable moments during the reign of each of the previous Mike s in LSU history: Mascot Years Notable Moments (Football Record) Mike I Purchased for $750, was the longest living mascot at 20 years ( ) CAREER GAMES PLAYED/STARTED Player Total Donnie Alexander, LB /0 12/1 12/2 1/1 37/4 Ed Alexander, NT /0 2/0 13/0 Dee Anderson, WR / /2 John Battle, S -- 1/0 12/0 12/7 2/2 27/9 Myles Brennan, QB /0 2/0 Nick Brossette, RB /0 12/0 2/0 23/0 Garrett Brumfield, OG /0 11/0 2/2 24/2 Donavaughn Campbell, OL /0 1/0 5/0 K'Lavon Chaisson /2 2/2 D.J.

9 True Freshmen Play Big Roles at LSU 4 LSU recently has never shied away from playing true freshmen. In the last 12 years, a total of 145 true freshmen have seen action for LSU, including 17 just one week into Of the 145 true freshmen who have played, 50 have started at least once during their freshman season. Aranda Returns as Nation s Elite Coordinator 4 LSU s defense under coordinator Dave Aranda allowed the fewest touchdowns (16) and fewest touchdowns per game (1.3) in college football in The Tigers defense finished ranked No. 5 in points per game and No. 10 in total yards. In 2016, LSU held six of its 12 opponents to fewer than 300 total yards. 4 LSU s most dominant performance came against Louisville and the Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson in the bowl game. Aranda s defense held Louisville to season lows for points and rushing yards as the Tigers recorded eight sacks, just one shy of tying the school record. LSU Defense Has Allowed TDs on Consecutive Possessions Just Twice 4 Under defensive coordinator Dave Aranda, LSU has allowed touchdowns on consecutive possessions just twice, against Mississippi State in week 3 and Texas A&M in week 13 of the 2016 season. 4 In 169 possessions by the opponent, LSU s defense has yielded just 17 TDs and 25 field goals under Aranda The Aussie Punting Connection 4 Since the 2011 season, LSU has had the unique connection of having an Australian native punter. Brad Wing, a native of Melbourne, was a 2011 first-team All-American and served as the Tigers punter in 2012 as well. 4 Jamie Keehn took over punting duties in 2013 and finished his career with the fourth-best punting average for a career last year as a senior while being a permanent team captain and was named to the 2015 SEC Academic Honor Roll. 4 Sophomore Josh Growden has been the Tigers' punter over the last two seasons. Growden was selected to the All-SEC Freshman team after averaging 41.4 yards on 57 punts. Aranda s LSU Defense Allowed Just 2 First Half Touchdowns In Final Five Games 4 Dating back to the start of last year s Alabama game, LSU s defense, under the direction of Dave Aranda, limited opponents to only two touchdowns in the first half of the final five games of the season and thru week one of Arkansas and Texas A&M were the only teams to score first half TDs against the Tigers over the final five games last year. 4 In the first half of the last five games of the 2016 season, LSU allowed a total of 23 points (Alabama 0, Arkansas 7, Florida 3, Texas A&M 7, and Louisville 6). On the other hand, LSU s offense racked up 64 points during that span. This Day vs. Night Thing in Tiger Stadium 4 The facts indicate that LSU plays better at night in Tiger Stadium than they do during the day. The numbers show that since 1960, LSU is at night under the lights compared to a mark in Tiger Stadium during the day. 4 Since 2000, LSU is overall at home, which includes a mark at night in Tiger Stadium and a 24-7 record during the day. 4 Prior to 2000, LSU had only won 10 games at home during the day in 32 tries. 4 From 1960 to 1999, LSU posted a (.359) record at home during the day.
