The LSU Tigers blew out Oklahoma 63-28 in Saturday’s Peach Bowl, advancing to the national title game and setting all sorts of offensive records.

However, co-OC Steve Ensminger’s heart was heavy even after the win, as his daughter-in-law passed away in a plane crash heading to Atlanta for the game.

After the big victory, Ensminger was greeted by staffers and assistants, many of whom gave him a hug and offered some kind words:

Ensminger will presumably go spend some time with his family after the game, especially his son Steve Ensminger Jr.

Carley McCord was Ensminger Jr.’s wife and was among 5 killed when a small plane crashed on Saturday morning.
