Just how hot is the seat under LSU coach Ed Orgeron?

That's the storyline the Tigers had hoped to avoid this season, but it's the storyline they face after a 38-27 loss to UCLA on Saturday.

LSU got whipped in the trenches, Max Johnson played flustered, a coordinator change didn't solve LSU's defense, and the Tigers need more playmakers than just Kayshon Boutte on offense.

LSU didn't play with a lot of fire, either, and now Orgeron's long-term future with the program is being questioned just 18 months after leading the Tigers to a national championship behind Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Joe Burrow.
