Twitter reacts to Brian Kelly’s debut loss at LSU
The 2021 football season started for Brian Kelly with his highly ranked Notre Dame team surviving a scare against Florida State and moving to 1-0 with an overtime victory.
A year later Kelly again opened the season against Florida State but this time it was in his debut as LSU’s head coach in a game played in the Louisiana Superdome.
And this time Kelly wasn’t able to sneak away with a victory, with his Tigers instead falling 24-23.
As you can probably expect, a lot of Notre Dame fans had the ex-girlfriend thing going on with Kelly’s LSU debut and kept an eye on the game, many even feeling the need to take to social media during it. Here are some of the best Twitter reaction to Kelly’s debut loss with the Bayou Bengals.

It’s just one game, but Brian Kelly has had a speechless “I’ve made a huge mistake” look on his face all night.

When do we question whether anemic offense in big games is a Brian Kelly thing and not a Notre Dame thing?

Billy Napier inherited a very similar situation to Brian Kelly. Napier’s team very impressively took down #7 in the country, Kelly’s squad seems light years from winning games.
Am I wrong??

I, for one, am shocked that a Brian Kelly coached team has come out totally flat in a big game against a brand name opponent
