I don't think there is much question that LSU played it first. Clemson didn't begin playing Tiger Rag until 1942.

LSU's band had played Tiger Rag well prior to that, probably by the 1920s at least. I recall seeing a photograph of an early LSU Gumbo yearbook from the 1930s that mentions the band playing Tiger Rag.
