The Southeastern Conference has announced future football opponents for the 2026-2029 seasons.

LSU will play Ole Miss, Texas A&M and Arkansas as its three annual rivals under the new nine-game schedule format. Texas A&M will visit Baton Rouge in 2026 while the Tigers will travel to face the Rebels and Razorbacks.

Alabama, Mississippi State and Texas will round out the home schedule. It will be the first time the Tigers and Longhorns meet as conference foes. That means LSU’s 2026 home slate will include Clemson, Alabama, Texas A&M and Texas.

LSU will travel to Auburn, Kentucky and Tennessee in 2026.

The six teams LSU does not face next year will rotate onto the schedule in 2027. The Tigers will host Missouri, Vanderbilt and Oklahoma while they will travel to Florida, Georgia and South Carolina.

The 2026 schedule will flip home-and-away in 2028. Likewise, the 2027 schedule will flip in 2029.

SEC releases LSU's 2026-29 league opponents

LSU's 2026-2029 SEC football schedule is set. The Tigers draw Ole Miss, Texas A&M and Arkansas as annual rivals with marquee matchups vs. Alabama and Texas.

Heisman favorite John Mateer sidelined, reshaping CFP and award odds

Oklahoma QB John Mateer is out indefinitely after hand surgery, dropping Sooners' title odds to 25/1 and removing him from Heisman contention as Fernando Mendoza takes over as favorite.

Saints re-sign TE Moliki Matavao

The Saints have re-signed rookie tight end Moliki Matavao after a brief roster shuffle, adding depth as the team awaits veteran returns.

Film Study: Saints' special teams cause for concern

Special teams doomed the Saints vs. Seahawks. A 95-yard punt return TD by Tory Horton and a blocked punt by D'Anthony Bell set up Seattle's early dominance.

What if LSU RB Caden Durham does not play vs. Ole Miss?

LSU RB Caden Durham is questionable vs. Ole Miss, putting pressure on Ju'Juan Johnson, Kaleb Jackson, and Harlem Berry to step up in LSU's struggling ground game.
