'LSU Tigers Basketball Tickets'

'Ever since the first men's LSU Tigers' basketball team was established in 1909, players have proudly represented Louisiana State University in NCAA Division I men's basketball. The LSU Tigers' schedule is rooted in the Division I Southeastern Conference. Once a part of the Southwest Conference in the 1930s, the LSU Tigers later moved into the Southeastern Conference. Since then, the LSU Tigers have made it to the Final Four Tournament four times in 1953, 1981, 1986 and 2006. With a record of 14-1, the LSU Tigers also captured the National Championship in 1934 with coach Harry Rabenhorst. Keeping up with the tradition of 12 overall Conference Championship victories, the Tigers took the SEC Conference Championship in 2018 with coach Will Wade.
