Which LSU Tigers games are worth watching in 2026?
LSU wastes no time with a blockbuster opener against Clemson in Death Valley, one of the premier non-conference games of the entire college football season. The Tigers immediately jump into SEC action at Ole Miss before welcoming Texas A&M, setting up a demanding September. October includes tricky road trips to Kentucky and Auburn, while the annual Homecoming game against Mississippi State provides a brief break in the schedule.
November is loaded with College Football Playoff implications. Alabama returns to Tiger Stadium for another chapter in one of the SEC's biggest rivalries, followed a week later by a home showdown with Texas. LSU then closes the regular season with difficult road games at Tennessee and Arkansas, giving the Tigers one of the nation's toughest finishing stretches as they chase an SEC Championship berth.
