Clearly not one to let a good Cheez-It go to waste, Brian Kelly snacked on the leftovers of his Cheez-It win shower after LSU’s win over Purdue.
LSU coach Brian Kelly woke up feeling cheesy.
He led his Tigers to an emphatic 63-7 victory over Purdue in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl and ended up getting a shower of Cheez-It crackers to celebrate.
He did not waste them, and reached down to gather a handful to enjoy.

Who wouldn’t do the same? Victory Cheez-Its must taste extra cheesy.
It was also fitting for the LSU coach to reach down and eat something off the grass. Lee Miles used to chew grass from the field. Cheese is a much tastier option.
Kelly’s first season in charge in Baton Rouge certainly wasn’t perfect, but the Tigers found the perfect way to cap it off with a blast bowl victory.
Quarterback Jaden Daniels went 12 of 17 for 139 yards and a touchdown. He also rushed for 67 yards and caught a touchdown pass from Malik Napiers, who was Citrus Bowl MVP with nine catches, 163 yards, and a touchdown of his own. Backup quarterback Garrett Nusmayer also came into play, throwing two touchdowns.
LSU running backs Noah Cain, John Emery Jr., and Derek Davis Jr. combined for four touchdowns.
The defense did not concede the score to the Boilermakers until the fourth quarter. Quad Wilson even put the defense on the board with an interception return 99 yards for a touchdown.
The Tigers set Citrus records for points, touchdowns, and total yards. Their 56-point win was the most in bowl history.
It was as sure as they came.
