 The 2016 LSU Tigers opened up their Fall Camp yesterday; with head coach Les Miles entering his 12th year at the helm of one of the nation’s truly elite football programs of the last decade.

As such, expectations in Baton Rouge are very high — as most observers have the Tigers ranked as a Pre-Season Top 5 team.

Leonard Fournette is a prime candidate for the Heisman Trophy and the defense has a wealth of talent.
