LSU’s run game was a disaster in 2025—finishing 124th nationally—and it’s priority No. 1 for Lane Kiffin this offseason.

On today’s episode, we dive into what’s changing and why there’s real belief inside the program that a turnaround is coming. Transfer running back Dilin Jones took first-team reps and explained why he chose LSU and how RB coach Kevin Smith is elevating the room. Veteran offensive lineman Bo Bordelon also shared insight into why this new scheme is built to run the football—and why it fits LSU’s personnel better than last year.

What will Kiffin’s system look like on the ground? Can LSU realistically go from one of the worst rushing teams in the country to a strength in 2026? And who will emerge as the go-to back in this revamped offense?

We break it all down with key takeaways from player interviews and what it means for LSU moving forward.
