Episode Details

The early betting line for LSU’s 2026 season opener is turning heads across college football.

Oddsmakers have installed the Tigers as an 11.5-point favorite over Clemson in Tiger Stadium, a number that speaks volumes before a snap has even been played in the Lane Kiffin era. Matt Moscona breaks down whether the spread is more about the massive expectations surrounding LSU’s roster and coaching overhaul or a sign that Clemson and Dabo Swinney have slipped in the national hierarchy.

Plus, LSU baseball returns to Alex Box Stadium for a midweek matchup against McNeese. We preview the pitching plan, what Jay Johnson is hoping to see from his staff early in the season and key storylines to watch heading into SEC play.

And LSU basketball adds international experience to the roster with the commitment of Australian guard Owen Foxwell, a 22-year-old pro with four years of overseas experience. Moscona discusses how Foxwell fits into Matt McMahon’s rebuild and what his addition says about LSU’s roster strategy moving forward.
