Ed Orgeron didn’t think twice when he was offered the LSU interim head coach position a little over a week ago.

He didn’t hesitate. He was “all in.”

“It never crossed my mind (to hesitate),” said Orgeron. “I was all in. There was no question in my mind I would do everything in my ability for the Tigers.”

LSU is now 1-0 under Orgeron after a record-breaking offensive performance in last week’s 42-7 win vs. Missouri. Now the Tigers are preparing for a trip to The Swamp to take on rival Florida, a series where they’ve held the edge as of late, winning three in a row and five of six dating back to 2010.

Another win vs. the Gators would be a tremendous step forward for Orgeron and the Tigers.

“The expectation from the people of Louisiana are very high,” said Orgeron.
