Ed Orgeron claimed his 15-0 LSU team, led by Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson, ranks as the best college football team ever assembled in any era.

As the Penn State coaching search continues, a former Big Ten coach who is a College Football Hall of Famer could be a strong hire.

The LSU Tigers parted ways with former head coach Brian Kelly in October following a 5-3 start to the 2025 college football season. During his tenure at LSU, the former Notre Dame head coach compiled a 34-14 record. However, Kelly's team did not qualify for the College Football Playoff, nor did they win the SEC title.

While negotiations are still ongoing between both parties, Kelly's contractual buyout of more than $50 million would be the second largest ever paid to a college football coach -- behind only Jimbo Fisher, who received more than $76 million after being fired by Texas A&M in November 2023.

As LSU faces a massive buyout after firing Brian Kelly, the projected $54 million payout could rank among college football's highest ever.

The College Football Playoff announced Wednesday that Caesars Superdome in New Orleans will host the 2028 title game.
