The LSU Tigers are only five years removed from their undefeated run to a national title in 2019, but it kind of feels like a lot longer. Since then, they’ve changed coaches, lost five consecutive season openers, and haven’t qualified for the College Football Playoff.
The good news is that the Brian Kelly era has produced three consecutive winning seasons and three straight bowl wins. And in 2025, there seems to be reason for optimism that LSU’s schedule and star QB Garrett Nussmeier will allow for a smoother path to the CFP.

2025 LSU Tigers TV schedule
The Tigers got a couple of breaks in their 2025 slate by not having to play three teams that qualified for the CFP last year. But they do have Clemson to start this year, and there’s a lot of intrigue going into that matchup since LSU hasn’t won a season opener in quite some time.
With LSU in the SEC, most games will likely be on ABC or ESPN’s family of networks. See the full schedule below, which I’ll update as more information becomes available.

Best TV plans for watching LSU Tigers football
Data effective as of post date. Offers and availability may vary by location and are subject to change.
For die-hard LSU Tigers fans, ensuring you never miss a game is a top priority. Hulu + Live TV is my favorite choice for watching the most college football action because of its comprehensive channel lineup. It also includes worthy perks like ESPN+ at no extra charge and unlimited DVR storage.
While Hulu + Live TV offers extensive college sports, it doesn’t feature every football matchup, particularly those involving lower-level teams. Some games may require access to a regional sports network or a separate streaming subscription.
