Will the LSU have one of the best backfield of College football in 2025?

The improvement of the LSU as a team in 2025 largely depends on the development of several returning offenses.

As part of a series in which some of the best position groups in College football are highlighted in 2025, the 247Sports team took the 10 best backfields. LSU came in 10th place, with the piece of the trio of the quarterback highlighted Garrett Nussmeier and running backs Caden Durham And Kaleb Jackson.

“The tigers, who wanted to throw more often last season last season -of the straw, which moves the drink for the Tiger as a top passing candidate nationally.”

The development of the quarterback and this running back is of crucial importance for a more balanced and more explosive crime. In 2024, the LSU had 70 offensive games that lasted 20 yards or longer, which took number 26 in the country. This is decent, but it was easy to see that it was easy to see that there was a great space for improvements. The 211 games of more than 10 meters were also good for top 20 in the country last season.

A more dynamic, explosive offensive is certainly on the cards for this crime in 2025, considering that the talent that was brought to a wide recipient, as well as the continued development of Nussmeier and the running back room. If Durham can stay healthy in autumn, he will probably be one of the leading Rusher in the Sec.

As a real newcomer, Durham established himself very early in the regular season as Clear Cut No. 1 option after not really seeing this type of workload in the autumn camp. He also played through injuries to contain precisely to be precise. His vision is very strong and when it breaks into the second level, it is very difficult to lower it.

Jackson also has an unused potential and its development in this third season season will be critical if he wants to be a consistent part of the rotation. Because the two players who were not mentioned on the top of this piece are newcomers Harlem Berry And Jt Lindseywhich both push for season in this low season.

Berry in particular is already in Baton Rouge and came against the Tiger before the Texas Bowl game Baylorwhere he could go into a few exercises with the team. He is just as explosively a high school that runs back that Louisiana has brought back in the last decade Leonard Fourette And Joe McKnight in front of it. But going to LSU from a small high school in Metairie is the step in the weight class, so we will learn more about his willingness to snapshots during spring training.

Although Lindsey may not be as fast as Berry, it is still very difficult to grasp, as a runner has a great control and is about £ 10 than his newcomer at that time.

What these two newcomers have to learn pretty quickly is how to work efficiently if they are not the bell cows of a criminal offense. Both Berry and Lindsey come from high school teams that gave them the keys. Regardless of whether it is five or ten snapshots that you get into a game, and the best of these touches will be a learning experience.

In the end, this will be a top 10 backfield, which not only the running backs, but also the offensive defense are displayed in the Scrimmage line.

Nussmeier's development was a hot topic of conversation when he entered his second full low season as a starter, but his first with the kind of experience that will shape his spring and summer schedule. Should Nussmeier take the steps forward, many expect, this LSU bakedfield and the overall offense will harvest the rewards.
