Overall Record: 12-2 | SEC Record; 6-2
Head Coach Les Miles

The 2007 LSU Tigers built on the momentum of the two previous seasons, each of which produced at least 11 wins, by posting a 6-2 league record en route to the SEC title. Led by three All-Americans, the Tigers never lost a game in regulation. LSU defeated No. 15 Tennessee in the SEC Championship Game, secured when Jonathan Zenon returned an interception for a TD to seal the victory. In a showdown with No. 1 Ohio State in the BCS National Championship, in front of a Louisiana Superdome capacity crowd, the Buckeyes could not stop LSU's offense led by Matt Flynn as the Tigers claimed the crystal ball, 38-24, making LSU the first team to win two BCS National Championships.
