LSU Football: Ed Orgeron points out the only downside to winning national championship

LSU football head coach Ed Orgeron was obviously thrilled the Tigers went 15-0 and won a national championship this past season.

Orgeron is constantly looking forward, working to improve LSU’s football team.

Orgeron told reporters on National Signing Day that playing in the College Football Playoff championship put the Tigers “behind a week or so in recruiting” (this year’s national championship game was played a week later than last year’s).
