"Sam Leavitt Experience Is Going to Cost LSU": Ex-NFLer & CFB Champ Sounds Alarm Despite Lane Kiffin's Team's Blowout Win Over McNeese

Despite a dominant 63-14 triumph over McNeese, former LSU defensive lineman Breiden Fehoko expressed serious doubts about the Tigers' signal-caller. The 2019 champion warned on social media that quarterback Sam Leavitt's inconsistent throwing could ultimately derail the program's championship aspirations during rigorous SEC competition.

Fehoko pointed to prior struggles, including a three-interception game against Louisiana Tech, arguing that reliance on the quarterback's mobility masks deeper passing flaws that stronger opponents will exploit.

Head coach Lane Kiffin has previously navigated these concerns by encouraging his quarterback to trust targets like Jackson Harris, who shined with 163 yards and two scores in a victory over Texas A&M despite an ongoing hamstring issue for Leavitt. While the squad secured comfortable wins, critics like Fehoko maintain that lingering mechanical issues and turnover tendencies require greater caution as the season progresses.
