Breaking : Garrett Nussmeier Stuns NCAA Community, Reveals Major Truth About LSU and Brian Kelly
The 2025 LSU football team might not only be the best squad Brian Kelly has coached during his time in Baton Rouge, but potentially the best of his entire career. While Kelly’s tenure at LSU has seen its ups and downs, this season’s roster appears to be his most well-rounded yet. With Garrett Nussmeier—a quarterback with NFL-level talent—leading the charge, LSU has a legitimate shot at contending for a national championship.
In a recent in-depth article by Geaux247 senior writer Glen West, several LSU players shared their thoughts ahead of their Saturday night matchup with Clemson. One of the standout moments came from Nussmeier himself, who emphasized how unified the team feels this year, a shift that has fueled a strong sense of confidence throughout the program.
“It’s a completely different vibe,” Nussmeier said. “There’s a growing confidence, and it’s been noticeable since spring ball. This team is tight-knit, and that chemistry has sparked a competitive edge. Everyone wants to outwork each other, and that’s been great to see. Both sides of the ball are carrying that confidence and swagger.
“On defense, you’ve got leaders like Whit Weeks and Harold Perkins. Offensively, players like Aaron Anderson, Barion Brown, and Zavion Thomas bring that same energy. There’s a swagger around the program again—like when I first got here and saw guys like Derek Stingley. It feels like LSU football is back to that confident, electric identity.”
Nussmeier’s remarks hold weight, especially when considering the makeup of the roster. LSU not only retained key players but also added impactful new talent. The big question mark remains the defense, which has struggled with consistency over the past two years.
This season, the defense should see improvement. Harold Perkins Jr. returns from an ACL injury and is shifting back to his more natural role as an edge rusher. LSU also landed a major transfer in Florida State’s Patrick Payton. The secondary looks promising, and Whit Weeks remains a tackling force in the heart of the defense.
Ultimately, Garrett Nussmeier is the most vital piece for LSU’s success. When he says this team feels different, it’s worth listening. With the talent assembled, this season represents a pivotal moment for Brian Kelly—one that could end with a College Football Playoff appearance if everything clicks.
