LSU Tigers

The LSU Tigers play in one of college football's most feared environments, Tiger Stadium -- 'Death Valley' -- where a sold-out purple-and-gold crowd in Baton Rouge has helped make LSU one of the toughest true road tests in America. Built on a foundation of elite recruiting in the talent-rich state of Louisiana, LSU has become a modern national power, capturing multiple national titles this century alone. The program's blend of Cajun culture, live tiger mascot tradition, and night-game intensity gives it one of the sport's most distinctive identities.

LSU fielded its first football team in 1893 and claims four national championships: 1958, 2003, 2007, and the perfect 15-0 2019 campaign under Ed Orgeron that many consider one of the greatest college football teams ever assembled. A charter member of the SEC, LSU has won 16 conference championships and ranks among the winningest programs in FBS history. Night games in Tiger Stadium have become a signature of the program's home-field mystique.
