Kiffin’s LSU Blueprint: Fixing the Run Game Is Priority No. 1

Here is a misconception about the Lane Kiffin offense.

Kiffin’s offensive strategy is built primarily on its passing game. Such an evaluation is not true.

Kiffin’s teams have run the ball quite effectively. One simply needs to look at the running game numbers for Ole Miss during Kiffin’s six seasons as head coach.

Under Kiffin, the Rebels had three 1,000-yard rushers – Quinshon Judkins (1,567 yards in 2022 and 1,158 yards in 2023) and Kewan Lacy (1,567 yards in 2025).
