LSU QUARTERBACK GARRETT NUSSMEIER SETS WEDDING DATE AFTER ROMANTIC ENGAGEMENT TO LONGTIME GIRLFRIEND ELLA SPRINGFIELD….. READ MORE…..

LSU Tigers quarterback Garrett Nussmeier has taken a major step off the field, announcing his engagement to longtime girlfriend Ella Springfield and officially setting a wedding date. The beloved LSU signal-caller, already known for his leadership and commitment to the program, now has fans celebrating a different kind of milestone—this time in his personal life.

The couple, who have been together for several years, shared the exciting news via social media over the weekend. Nussmeier posted a heartfelt message on Instagram alongside photos of the romantic proposal, which reportedly took place during a weekend getaway with family and close friends in attendance. “She said yes!” Nussmeier wrote. “Can’t wait to spend forever with you, Ella.”

Ella Springfield, a familiar face among LSU supporters due to her frequent appearances at games and team events, also shared the news on her Instagram story. “I’m marrying my best friend,” she wrote. “Forever starts now.”

The couple did not keep fans waiting long for details. Just a day after the engagement news broke, Nussmeier revealed that the wedding date is officially set for May 31, 2026, a few weeks after the 2025 college football season concludes. The ceremony is expected to take place in Baton Rouge, with many teammates, coaches, and LSU alumni likely to be in attendance.

Teammates and coaches have already expressed their excitement. LSU head coach Brian Kelly offered congratulations during a team meeting Monday, and several players took to social media to cheer the couple on. “Big W for the QB1!” wrote linebacker Whit Weeks on X (formerly Twitter). “Congrats to you both.”

The news has quickly spread across LSU fan forums and social media, with fans celebrating the engagement as yet another reason to rally around their quarterback. Known for his strong play on the field and high character off it, Nussmeier has grown into a fan favorite, and this latest chapter has only deepened the admiration from the LSU community.

Nussmeier, who returned for the 2025 season rather than entering the NFL Draft, has long spoken about the importance of family and stability. During media day earlier this year, he praised Ella for being a constant source of support. “She’s been with me through the ups and downs,” he said. “There’s no one else I’d rather have by my side.”

With his football career on a promising trajectory and his personal life now moving toward marriage, Garrett Nussmeier seems to be thriving on all fronts. While Tigers fans are already excited about what he’ll bring to the field this fall, they’re equally thrilled to watch him step into the next chapter of life with Ella Springfield.

As one fan posted on LSU’s official Instagram page: “QB1 just made the best throw of his life—right into Ella’s heart.”

The countdown to the wedding is on, and LSU Nation will be cheering just as loudly for the couple’s big day as they do every Saturday in Death Valley.
