Top returning players

How do you follow up the record-shattering championship season Joe Burrow put together at LSU? I certainly have no idea but quarterback Myles Brennan will give it a try. Brennan has only seen the field in relief since coming to Baton Rouge in 2017. Last season, the redshirt sophomore made 10 appearances and threw for 353 yards and a touchdown while completing 24 of 40 passes.

Quarterback isn't the only position that's going to look a lot different at LSU this year. Justin Jefferson and Thaddeus Moss turned pro while Ja'Marr Chase opted out of the season, leaving the Tigers without three of their top four pass catchers from a year ago. Terrace Marshall Jr. will likely step in as the Tigers' top target after piling up 671 yards and 13 touchdowns on 46 catches in 2019. While the scoring may take a step back, his reception and yard totals could see an increase.

Derek Stingley Jr. will garner most of the defensive attention in Baton Rouge after a strong freshman campaign. The defensive back took college football by storm, recording six interceptions and 15 pass breakups while starting all 15 games for LSU. Stingley unanimously won SEC Newcomer of the Year and was named a consensus All-America selection.

Preseason ranking

LSU sits at No. 4 in our preseason Top 25. Here’s the breakdown:

4. LSU

Yes, Heisman winner Joe Burrow is headed to the NFL after a historic senior season, with Myles Brennan possibly taking over for head coach Ed Orgeron. Plus Biletnikoff winner Ja'Marr Chase will be back in Death Valley. However, LSU will lose DC Dave Aranda, who's left to become the Baylor head coach.
