LSU-Texas Preview: Last Stand for Kiffin's Tigers? Stats, Notes & Prediction

Coach Lane Kiffin’s first LSU football team will make its last stand Saturday night when Texas comes to Tiger Stadium.

LSU can still finish the regular season with an impressive 9-3 record. However, that mark may not be good enough to land the Tigers in the College Football Playoffs. LSU has a 1-3 record against teams who are on track to win at least eight regular season games.

LSU opened the 2026 season with a huge victory over Clemson (6-3).
