There’s no outrunning the past—especially when there’s a paper trail to prove it. And for Brian Kelly? His journey so far and his accolades have only made LSU’s 2025 outlook even stronger. He’s turning past setbacks into fuel for what could be a serious run. With the Tigers finishing 2024 with a not-so-bad 9-4 record, it looks like Kelly is gearing up for his shot at redemption. Enter Josh Pate, who just broke down LSU’s future trajectory on The Josh Pate CFB Show. And let’s just say—things are shaping up pretty well for Kelly as he puts his faith in the power of ‘that purple and gold brand.’

Now that we are officially debating about which CFB team might actually have an edge in the coming years, Josh Pate also joined the party. He is out there giving his thoughts on why Brian Kelly’s LSU is the next program that can propel to an “elite” level. “I think LSU just easily is my number one choice for someone who’s not there because they’re almost there already. The last few years they’ve won nine games this past year, ten games the year before, and ten games the year before that. They are a very good recruiter, they’re a really good portal team, and they’ve made really good organizational moves. I still believe in Brian Kelly,” Pate said.
