LSU Football: Ranking Tigers’ 2020 opponents by toughness
The Tigers have their fair share of road challenges on their 2020 schedule, including a trip to College Station to take on the Texas A&M Aggies in their season finale.
LSU rolled by the Aggies at home in 2019 but lost in an epic seven-overtime 74-72 shootout during its last trip to Kyle Field.
In 2020, the Aggies will look to take a step forward under Jimbo Fisher as they have yet to record a double-digit win season since he arrived in 2018. Playing in front of the ’12th Man’ won’t be easy, but LSU should still have a great chance to grab a road win.
Auburn was perhaps the closest of any team to taking down LSU last season as the Tigers eked out a 23-20 victory in Baton Rouge.
In 2020, LSU will have to travel to the plains and Jordan-Hare Stadium in what figures to be one of the best atmospheres of the season.
Auburn’s lone home loss came to Georgia last season as they picked up many challenging home wins, including Alabama and Mississippi State. Thus, LSU will have its hands full and will need to avoid looking ahead to rivalry week and Texas A&M.
