LSU Tigers 2021: News, Schedule, Roster, Scores, Injury Report

The LSU Tigers compete in NCAA Men's Basketball as a part of the Southeastern Conference. Alabama, Florida, and Kentucky are some notable teams from their conference. They were founded in 1908.

They were named Tigers after a military regiment in the Civil War that also went by the same name. This name was adopted in 1896 by the university.

Their first logo was a cartoon Tiger wearing a hat, which was launched back in 1955. Throughout the years, LSU has had multiple logo changes, with different variants of a tiger. Finally, in 2014, they dropped the tiger and have just kept the letters LSU in the logo.
