LSU Tigers
LSU's top projected fantasy scorer for the 2026 season is Sam Leavitt, a QB projected for 329.5 points (overall rank #12 among every FBS draftable player on the board). Across its top 10 board-ranked players, LSU projects for 1142.0 combined fantasy points — 35.8 points above the SEC median of 1106.2, ranking #7 of 16 in the conference. Its deepest position group is wide receivers, worth 595.4 combined projected points from 14 rostered players.
The SEC is one of the sport's four power conferences. Saturday Night Showdown carries live projections and a full draft board for all 138 FBS programs — power-conference and Group of Five alike.
Projected points and board slot are Saturday Night Showdown's own 2026 season-long projections and value-based draft board, generated before Week 0 kicks off — not stats from games already played, and not an average of real-world draft results.
