Brian Kelly at LSU. LSU Football Head Coach Brian Kelly speaks to media following the first spring practice under him. Thursday, March 24, 2022 Lsu Spring Practice 03 24 22

The LSU Tigers entered the 2023 college football season with hopes of competing for a national title, but those hopes appear to have been dashed already as the team suffered their second loss of the season in a stunning defeat against the Ole Miss Rebels. But it sounds like head coach Brian Kelly expects his team to bounce back from the disappointment.

During his postgame press conference, Brian Kelly made it clear that despite the brutal loss, the team is going to “go back to work” and “get better.”

“There was some resiliency to the group, but we have a long way to go,” Kelly said postgame. “Listen, we’re not canceling the season, okay? We’re going to be there and work our tails off to get better. It was gut-wrenching. It was a difficult loss and our guys felt it, too.

“We’re going to go back to work, and we’re going to work our tails off to get better. We’re going to work to get our offense even better and hopefully, that’ll be good enough to go up to Columbia and back on the road in an SEC matchup against a really good team to get a win. We’re trying to get through week-to-week now. Day-by-day. That’s going to be our focus.”

We’ll have to see how the team performs the rest of the season following the two disappointing losses to start the year.
