LSU Tigers College Football Betting
It was a good but not great year for the 2023 LSU Tigers. Head coach Brian Kelly put together half a team after winning the SEC West Division title last season. LSU was led by Heisman Trophy candidate Jaydon Daniels, who proved to be one of the elite QBs in the game. However, Daniels and the Bayou Bengals were undone by a defense ranked 104th in the country. Thus, the 9-3 Tigers will play in the Wisconsin Badgers in the ReliaQuest Bowl

There is nothing like a Louisiana Saturday night. The LSU Tigers take on a different personality when playing at Tiger Stadium in a night game. It’s one of the great atmospheres in sports. The best example is the 1988 “Earthquake Game” when LSU upset Auburn on a Saturday night. Celebrating fans made Tiger Stadium shake to its core.
The LSU Tigers have four national championships. The last one was in 2019. Many observers consider the LSU team the greatest in college football history. Quarterback Joe Burrow led a team that was loaded with NFL talent.
The Bayou Bengals have 16 conference championships and 11 division titles. The late great Billy Cannon remains legendary as the 1959 Heisman Trophy winner.
