Saturday night in Baton Rouge was all about LSU's football team, but it was Lane Kiffin's daughter, Landry, who truly stole the spotlight. As the Tigers rolled to a 63-14 blowout victory over McNeese State, Landry's game-day outfit had fans doing double takes.
Landry, who has become a familiar face around LSU athletics, showed up in a stylish Tigers-themed ensemble that perfectly captured the spirit of the night. She captioned a photo of her look on social media: “Got dressed up to watch boys chase a ball.” The post quickly lit up with comments from admirers.
“This is 🔥🔥,” one fan wrote. Another chimed in, “Obsessed w you.” The compliments kept coming, with fans calling her “Literally perfect” and “Very beautiful picture of you Landry!” One enthusiastic supporter added, “Yes ma’am👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼.”
While Landry was winning the fashion game, her dad's team was handling business on the field. LSU improved to 4-1 on the season with the commanding win, and head coach Lane Kiffin was pleased with the overall performance, especially the lack of major injuries.
“I think we didn’t have any major injuries for the first game, so that was really big. We obviously pulled people really early with concern of our depth and things. So the good part about it is a lot of guys got to play,” Kiffin said postgame.
Kiffin also praised his team's focus, noting they didn't come out flat after halftime. “I thought our guys, outside of some guys late with a few things, played really well. I know you’re supposed to win these games big, but that doesn’t always happen. Or maybe you do well in the first quarter, first half, but you come out flat in the third quarter. And I thought our guys really responded well out of the locker room. Played really good early third quarter.”
The blowout allowed Kiffin to give plenty of snaps to backups, which was a key goal heading into a tough stretch. “So it was good to see a lot of guys make plays. A lot of snaps for guys, which was the goal. The goal is to get up, but then to evaluate these guys because they’re going to need to play with the injuries that we have down the stretch. Now you’ve got seven conference games in a row. So, 101 plays of offense, a lot of snaps for backups to get in there and do some things,” he explained.
Landry's outfit wasn't the only fashion statement in the college football world this weekend. Over in the NFL, Erin Andrews' rain outfit also turned heads before the Eagles-Rams game, proving that game-day style is always a hot topic.
LSU's schedule gets significantly tougher from here, with matchups against Kentucky, Mississippi State, and Auburn looming. The Tigers will need all the depth they've built, and maybe a little more of Landry's good luck charm, as they dive into conference play.
