LSU will make its fifth national television appearance of the season on Saturday as ESPN will televise the Tigers’ clash with South Carolina.
Kickoff for the LSU-South Carolina contest is scheduled for 7 p.m. CDT from Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, S.C.
Saturday will mark LSU’s first trip to South Carolina since the 2003 season when the Tigers posted a 33-7 win over the Gamecocks in what was the first of eight straight wins for LSU to close out the national championship campaign. Last year, LSU beat the Gamecocks, 28-16, in Tiger Stadium.
Mike Patrick, Todd Blackledge and Holly Rowe will call the action for ESPN on Saturday.
LSU’s other nationally-televised games this year have come against Appalachian State (ESPN Classic), Auburn (ESPN), Mississippi State (ESPN2) and Florida (CBS).
Other SEC games on television this week include the Vanderbilt-Georgia game on Raycom Sports at 11:30 a.m. CDT and the Ole Miss-Alabama contest at 2:30 p.m. CDT on CBS.
