When does LSU football report for fall camp?
The Tigers report for fall camp on July 29, with the first date of practice being July 30. They open the 2025 schedule with a top-10 road matchup at Clemson on August 30. LSU is currently a 3.5-point underdog in that contest.
Following last season, head coach Brian Kelly's staff went to work in the transfer portal and signed the top class of the cycle. It included overhauls to the wide receiver and defensive end rooms, specifically, both of which benefited from an influx of proven power four talents.
Garrett Nussmeier returns for his second season at the helm of LSU's offense. The quarterback is chasing the program's all-time leading passer mark in his fifth year donning the purple and gold. He's expected to be one of the best quarterbacks in the SEC and compete for the Heisman Trophy.
As usual, the expectations are to compete for the College Football Playoff in Baton Rouge.

Diamondbacks vs. Tigers prediction: MLB picks, best bets for Tuesday
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Not sure which team Eugenio Suárez will be playing for, but the Tigers host the Diamondbacks on Tuesday. Trade rumors have Arizona's Suárez heading to Detroit. Maybe during the seventh inning stretch. Disappointing season thus far for the Snakes. But Brandon Pfaadt hasn't been the problem. Pfaadt has allowed four runs in his past 21 ¹/₃ innings. The Tigers went through a rough stretch, but the rest of the division failed to close the gap on the first-place Cats. Casey Mize has lost two in a row, giving up 10 runs over seven innings. We will bet $50 on the D'backs (+120, FanDuel) no matter what uniform Suárez wears. Casey Mize has struggled in his last two starts.

Lone coach to leave Indiana football has a top quarterback leading UCLA offense, future IU opponent
BLOOMINGTON — Former Indiana football quarterbacks coach Tino Sunseri is among the reasons there's a buzz building at UCLA. The 36 year old was hired by UCLA coach Deshaun Foster to rebuild an offense that ranked 16th out of 18 Big Ten teams last season in scoring offense (18.4 points per game), 14th in total offense (328.8 yards per game) and 18th in rushing offense (86.6 yards). While Sunseri is a first-time coordinator, he didn't have any issues winning over the Bruins' locker room. "We saw what happened at Indiana and he was the co-offensive coordinator there,' UCLA offensive lineman Garrett DiGiorgio said at Big Ten media days. 'Seeing those stats, I wasn't too worried about him coming over. They speak for themselves, but he's also come in with a strong will." The former Pitt quarterback jumped into coaching after a stint in the CFL. He was a fast riser in the profession thanks to a gig as a graduate assistant for Nick Saban at Alabama. Indiana coach Curt Cignetti gave Sunseri his first assistant coach job in 2021 as James Madison's quarterbacks coach. Foster's connection with Sunseri predates all of that. 'His dad (Sal) was my defensive line coach in Carolina, I've known Tino since he was 11 or 12,' Foster said. 'Seeing how he's evolved as a coach resonated, this is somebody I want to get on staff." Foster got to see the end result of that evolution when IU made the trip out to the Rose Bowl for a Week 3 game against the Bruins last season. The Hoosiers won 42-13 while putting up 430 total yards of offense. Former Indiana quarterback Kurtis Rourke threw for 307 yards (25 of 33) with four touchdowns. Rourke went on to put up 3,000-plus yards while setting IU's single-season record for passing touchdowns (29). Foster cited Sunseri's successful track record working with transfer quarterbacks from Todd Centeio (2022) to Jordan McCloud (2023) to Rourke as a key reason he targeted him to run UCLA's offense. 'That's what we are really excited about, that he's taking guys in one year and completely flipped it upside down,' Foster said. "We're looking forward to that." Sunseri will put those skills to the test this year working with Nico Iamaleava, a Tennessee transfer who will likely be one-and-done at the school given his NFL aspirations. The former Vols quarterback put up 2,974 total yards of offense last season (2,616 passing) with 22 total touchdowns while leading the team to the College Football Playoff. The Bruins completed spring practice under the assumption that Joey Aguilar was the team's presumed starter, but that plan went out the window the minute Iamaleava became available. 'Man, I wanted to go play for him the first day I met him,' Iamaleava said. 'I felt that comfortable, he just has that certain presence to him." Indiana fans will get an up-close look at the Sunseri-Iamaleava pairing Oct. 25 when UCLA visits Bloomington for the first time. "Coach Tino brings everything to the table,' Iamaleava said on Big Ten Network. 'I think he truly has an everything offense in his playbook and I'm excited to be a part of it.'

Reeling Tigers Get One-Two Punch Of Bad News as Playoff Chances Slip
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The Detroit Tigers were one of the great MLB feel-good stories of 2024. Coming from seven games under .500 as late as Aug. 4, the Bengals surged into the postseason for the first time since 2014, winning 33 of their last 49 games. This year, at least through the beginning of July, they seemed to have picked up where they left off. On July 8, Detroit boasted the best record in baseball at 59-34, a .634 winning percentage. That was significantly better even than the defending World Series champs, the Los Angeles Dodgers, who at the time stood at .602. WASHINGTON, DC - JULY 03: Manager A.J. Hinch #14 of the Detroit Tigers walks across the field during the game against the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park on July 03, 2025 in Washington, DC. WASHINGTON, DC - JULY 03: Manager A.J. Hinch #14 of the Detroit Tigers walks across the field during the game against the Washington Nationals at Nationals Park on July 03, 2025 in Washington, then it all started to go south. Since that date, the Tigers have won only three games and lost 12. Amazingly, they still enjoy a comfortable — at least for now — lead of nine games in the American League Central over the Cleveland Guardians, who have problems of their own. But according to Fangraphs, the Tigers' chances of making the playoffs have slipped somewhat from a virtual certainty of 99.8% on July 8 with an 11.7% chance of winning the World Series — better than any team in MLB except the Dodgers — to 96.6% with an 8% chance of winning the World Series. In their most recent two games, the Tigers showed signs of turning their fortunes back around, snapping a six-game losing streak with a 10-4 win over the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday, followed by a 5-1 defeat of the Arizona Diamondbacks Monday. More MLB: Tigers Reportedly Acquiring Chris Paddack In Trade With Twins But all was still not well. The Tigers were slammed with a double shot of terrible injury news on Monday. First, 25-year-old, third-year starting pitcher Reese Olson — who had just returned from a five-week stay on the injured list July 4 — was sent back to the IL with a strained pitching shoulder. The Tigers did not reveal the exact nature of the "strain," but they know it must be bad enough to end the righty's season. The team sent Olson and his 3.15 ERA — effectively making him the Tigers No. 2 starter behind reigning Cy Young winner Tarik Skubal — straight to the 60-day IL, removing him from the 40-man roster. With top-rated rookie Jackson Jobe also out for the season since late May with Tommy John surgery, the Tigers have now lost three-fifths of their opening day starting rotation. The Tigers quickly engineered a trade with the Minnesota Twins to obtain Chris Paddack, a 29-year-old righty with a 4.95 ERA. But Paddack has reliably showed up for all 21 of his starts, which may be the most important factor for the Tigers at this moment. The seven-year veteran is scheduled to start Wednesday's game at home against Arizona, taking Olson's spot in the rotation. More MLB: Big Trouble For MLB-Best Tigers as Top Rookie Pitcher's Season Now Threatened But the bad news did not stop there for the Tigers. Also on Monday the team announced that centerfielder Parker Meadows, who missed the first 60 games of the season with a nerve injury in his right arm, was headed back to the IL. Unlike Olson, the Tigers expect Meadows to return at the end of his 10-day IL stay, or soon thereafter. The quad strain that sent him there, according to a report by the Detroit Free Press, was caught early and the team believes any serious tear to the muscle was averted. Meadows never got into a groove after returning from his first IL stint, scraping together an anemic .566 OPS on just 25 hits in 125 at-bats. The Tigers selected Andy Ibáñez from the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens to take Meadows' spot on the 26-man roster.
