LSU vs Mississippi State

Hello Tigers!

LSU got just what the team needed in last weekend's win over outmatched Northwestern State - no serious injuries, and a big enough lead by halftime to play a lot of backups in the second half. The competition ramps back up again as the Tigers hit the road against the Mississippi State Bulldogs, against whom LSU has won 18 of 19. As the saying goes though, these are not your father's Bulldogs; for the first time ever, MSU and LSU enter the game with both ranked. It's a Thursday night ESPN special this week.

LSU vs Northwestern State

Wow! What a way to start a season with a great win over Oregon, in a great stadium with the eyes of all of college football on LSU. Tiger fans everywhere are buzzing that the last time we started a season this way, with a big win over a highly ranked team... well, we all know what happened in 2007 after LSU demolished Virginia Tech. LSU has moved up to #2 in the AP poll, passing up one of those "teams in red" that Coach Miles loves to beat.

LSU vs Oregon

Wow, what a crazy week it's been - Jordan Jefferson, Russell Shepard & Josh Johns facing suspensions, and a hurricane here. The offseason was already eventful with the diagnosis of new Offensive Coordinator Steve Kragthorpe with Parkinson's Disease and his subsequent switch to Quarterback Coach, a couple of NCAA investigations, and the tragic loss of Coach Miles's sister. So this year, even more than other years, it is a certainty that as much as we fans look forward to the start of football, this Tiger team has got to be more than ready to get started.

Football watching and other updates

Greetings, Tigers!It's almost here - the football season is finally in sight! After several months filled with news of scandals at various schools, it'll be a relief to enjoy some actual football.

Crawfish time!

This week finally feels like spring is really here - and you know what that means for Louisianans - it's CRAWFISH TIME! Yep, it's time once again for the annual Triangle, NC LSU Alumni chapter crawfish boil. This year we are excited to have a special treat: sno-balls, courtesy of the Sneauxball Effect! It's hard to think of anything better to enjoy after some spicy crawfish, and the good folks that run the biz are big time LSU Tiger fans, too. It's a match made in heaven!
