The LSU Sports Insider podcast is back with an episode previewing LSU's trip to Auburn to face the other Tigers. It's a rivalry that has a history filled with crazy results, especially at Jordan-Hare Stadium, and LSU would like nothing more than to go get a win away from home. Those have been precious for the visiting Tigers, who have lost eight straight SEC road games, including their first two this season. We dissect the matchup, including some good injury news for LSU and where each set of Tigers matches up the best. Finally, we offer our keys to the game and predictions. #lsu #lsutigers #geauxtigers #lsufootball #auburn #auburntigers #wareagle #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball

The LSU football team enjoyed a routine blowout of Mississippi State on Saturday, and what happened the rest of the day helped the Tigers, too. Top teams fell across the SEC and the rest of the country, opening the door for LSU to re-enter the College Football Playoff conversation. We'll discuss the possibilities, starting with talk about whether any (or how many) SEC teams could make the playoff at 9-3, then going through the reasons to hope and reasons still to be skeptical of LSU's ability to get there against the rest of its schedule, starting next weekend at Auburn. #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #geauxtigers #secfootball #cfp #collegefootballplayoff #collegefootball #ncaafootball

The LSU football team returns home to face Mississippi State in a crucial game Saturday at Tiger Stadium. It's a must-win if the Tigers want to remain in any semblance of the College Football Playoff hunt, and LSU might be catching a break, as it appears Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor will either miss the game with a toe injury or be limited in the game. As for LSU, they'll need to put a frustrating loss at Kentucky behind them and focus on the stretch run, with the help of ... a pink visiting locker room? We'll explain (and also give our keys to the game and predictions). #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #geauxtigers #hailstate #secfootball #collegefootball #ncaafootball

With a couple of days to digest LSU's upset football loss at Kentucky, our LSU Sports Insiders break down the game, both how it happened and how damaging it is for LSU's playoff hopes. We'll also discuss the Tigers' specific woes on the road and the Sam Leavitt roller-coaster experience. In the second half of the show, we'll focus on basketball with SEC Media Days coming up this week. On the LSU men's side, Will Wade is talking a big game about his roster, but it's so in flux that it's hard to tell exactly what it'll look like. Either way, the Tigers might be pretty good. On the women's side, we know LSU will be pretty good; but can they be great? #lsu #lsutigers #lsufootball #geauxtigers #collegefootball #ncaafootball #collegebasketball #womensbasketball #secfootball
