The LSU Sports Insiders are back to discuss more confusion in the LSU football coaching search saga, this time regarding the title of Verge Ausberry, who has been described as the interim athletic director, the "acting" athletic director and the permanent athletic director at various points this week. We parse what it means and whether it matters. Plus: An actual football game! For the first time since Brian Kelly was fired, LSU takes the field, and it's a big test against No. 4 Alabama. Can the Tigers pull off the upset under interim coach Frank Wilson? We'll break it down and offer predictions.

The LSU football team heads to Alabama this week, but the oxygen in Baton Rouge is all being taken up by the team's search for a new coach. Our LSU Sports Insiders are here with more thoughts, including lead beat writer Wilson Alexander, who spoke to 15 people involved with the football program to find out how it all went wrong with Brian Kelly. We also offer updated thoughts on the search after interim athletic director Verge Ausberry and members of LSU's Board of Supervisors held a press conference Friday, look at the latest odds for LSU's next coach and talk about how the timeline will get very complicated for any candidates taking their current team to the College Football Playoff. #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #geauxtigers #football #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball #coachingcarousel

The LSU football team is seeking a new coach after firing Brian Kelly on Sunday, and it's already getting dramatic. Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry inserted himself in the headlines Wednesday, saying that athletic director Scott Woodward would have no part in the new search. What exactly does that mean? And why has it made LSU's search more complicated? Is interim coach Frank Wilson a real candidate? And what are our reporters hearing? The LSU Sports Insiders are here to answer those questions and more.

The LSU football team suffered a disappointing 31-24 loss at Vanderbilt on Saturday, dropping the Tigers to the edge of College Football Playoff contention and raising serious questions about the future of the program. Our LSU Sports Insiders, including beat writer Koki Riley and columnist Scott Rabalais, break it all down. We discuss what went wrong against Vandy, the injuries complicating the situation, why a rebound seems unlikely and what the future holds both for coach Brian Kelly and the rest of the LSU program. #lsu #lsutigers #geauxtigers #vandy #anchordown #secfootball #gigem #collegefootball #ncaafootball #football

The LSU football team heads to Nashville this week to take on the Vanderbilt Commodores in a pivotal showdown between 5-1 teams. Can the Tigers contain Vandy quarterback Diego Pavia? Will this be the week LSU gets its offense fully uncorked. Our LSU Insiders attempt to answer those questions and more, and finally offer their keys to the games and predictions for LSU vs. Vanderbilt. #lsu #lsutigers #geauxtigers #vandy #govandy #vanderbiltcommodores #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball #football

The output still wasn't fantastic, but the LSU offense showed signs of improvement in its 20-10 victory over South Carolina on Saturday night at Tiger Stadium. On this episode, we dive into why that was the case, including: • An improved running game • Is Trey'Dez Green LSU's best skill player? • Garrett Nussmeier looked much healthier • Garrett Nussmeier also still turned the ball over • Speaking of turnovers, was that a fluke or something to worry about? #lsu #lsufootball #lsutigers #geauxtigers #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball #football

LSU had an open date to figure out some of the issues that arose from its road loss to Ole Miss. Now the Tigers will try to get back on track when they host South Carolina on Saturday in Tiger Stadium. How healthy is Garrett Nussmeier? Can LSU run the ball? And do the Tigers have a plan to corral LaNorris Sellers? The Advocate's Scott Rabalais, Koki Riley and Reed Darcey sit down to break down the matchup and pick a winner.

LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier isn't the only SEC quarterback who hasn't met expectations; this week's opponent, South Carolina, also has a QB who has struggled compared to what he was last year. That would be LaNorris Sellers, whose Gamecocks come to Baton Rouge to battle the Tigers on Saturday. There are other struggling quarterbacks, first and foremost Texas' Arch Manning, and we'll talk about that on this episode, as well as a look around the SEC race and how important these three October games are for LSU. #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #geauxtigers #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball #football
