Ed Orgeron responds to job speculation after upset win
LSU coach Ed Orgeron had a typically curt response when asked about his job security on Saturday.
The Tigers upset Florida in a 49-42 shootout on Saturday, temporarily taking some of the heat off Orgeron. It didn’t completely save him from job speculation, however.
Orgeron was asked about his job, but the coach deflected attention to his players and said he was taking the situation one day at a time.
#LSU coach Ed Orgeron post-game: "I felt like the whole week we were going to win the game. These LSU Tigers are going to fight."
On his job: "One day at a time. One game at a time. It's not about me. It's about these players."

There’s not much Orgeron can say at this point. On Saturday alone, there were rumors about his potential replacement. Some inexplicable play during the Florida game probably won’t help either.
That said, Orgeron can’t have hurt himself with LSU’s win. In fact, he may have put his counterpart on the hot seat, too.
