Rarely do players with the intention of playing two sports in college follow through with the plan. Trey’Dez Green was different, though, getting time in football and basketball at LSU. Brian Kelly and Matt McMahon both saw value in the 6-6 star at tight end and forward.

Brian Kelly's contract states that the head coach will be owed 90 percent of his salary through what's left on his contract. Since he still has six more seasons remaining, that puts his buyout at $53,293,333, according to USA Today .

Linebacker Whit Weeks has been ruled out, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel, who initially reported Friday that the standout defender was listed as doubtful. Thamel noted that Weeks was going to try and warm up and attempt to play, but has now been ruled out due to an ankle injury, specifically a bone bruise.

Texas A&M's matchup against LSU is reflective of a college football season characterized by quarterback turmoil and the coaches navigating it.

Brian Kelly became one of the highest-paid coaches in college football in 2021. The 10-year, $95 million deal came when the school initially hired him to be in Baton Rouge. Since then, he has a 34-13 record overall, including 19-9 in SEC play.
