ESPN College GameDay will open the 2026 season in Baton Rouge for LSU's season opener vs. Clemson, according to reports on Tuesday.

The September 5th game at Tiger Stadium is a rematch of last season's season opener at Clemson and, more importantly, Lane Kiffin's highly anticipated first game at LSU.

Ain't nothing like a good old backyard beatdown! I'm optimistic, sure, but Kiffin is a winner and no one can argue with that.
GO TIGERS...LSU, THAT IS!
