LSU Football Interest Spikes Ahead of Crucial Game Against Ole Miss
Google Trends shows that interest in LSU football is expected to hit an all-time high this month, reaching the top of their 0-100 interest scale for the first time. This comes as no surprise given the team's recent national headlines, including coach Lane Kiffin's departure from Ole Miss and a lawsuit threat from Heisman winner Jayden Daniels.
Despite the drama surrounding the team, wins drive business for Ali Hassan, owner of Pro Image Sports in the French Quarter. He is indifferent to the recent months' chaos, saying 'For me the big thing is the (College Football) playoff, LSU needs the playoff.'
LSU will get a chance to step toward that playoff this Saturday against Ole Miss, an opponent they are expected to face off against in what could be a pivotal game for both teams.
