Because Louisiana has 5 syllables so announcers said LSU. Penn st and ohio st are just one so it's quick to say. Okie st isn't called OSU because OSU could also refer to many schools: oregon st, ohio st ext... Name another state that starts with L?

Or you could just say Louisiana State University if you're not into the whole brevity thing

Ive thought about that as well. The only schools that, the majority of the time, is called by their acronyms are LSU, USC, TCU and UCLA. (you might could add FSU in there as well)
