Locked On LSU - Daily Podcast On LSU Tigers Football & Basketball

It is a new era of SEC Football which means a new era and ranking of SEC coaches. Now that Nick Saban has retired and Kalen DeBoer fills the role of head coach of the Alabama Crimson Tide and Texas Longhorns' Steve Sarkisian and Oklahoma Sooners' Brent Venables have joined the conference, where does Brian Kelly rank among the top head coaches in the league? Georgia's Kirby Smart sits atop not just the best coaches in the league but in all of college football. How far behind is Brian Kelly? How many truly great coaches are in the SEC?

Plus, the LSU women's basketball team falls at Mississippi State Monday night, dropping their second consecutive game for the first time since head coach Kim Mulkey's first season with the Tigers. What went wrong? And how can Angel Reese and company bounceback to ensure those two losses don't snowball into even more and effect their postseason hopes?
