With a daunting schedule, Orgeron could definitely find himself on the hot seat. LSU opens the year at JerryWorld against Miami, following that is a week three matchup at Auburn.

CBSSports.com college football writer Tom Fornelli rated the Tigers schedule the toughest in the SEC.

Meanwhile Offshore bookmaker BetOnline.ag also released odds on which Southeastern Conference coach will be the first to be fired this upcoming season. 

Unfortunately Orgeron landed the top spot on that platform as well with 9/4 odds.

Next was Missouri head coach Barry Odum at 5/2 and Vanderbilt's Derek Mason at 5/1.
