As we wave goodbye to the holidays and step into the new year, LSU's sports scene becomes a bustling hub of activity. Multiple teams are gearing up for their seasons, ensuring there won't be a dull moment for sports fans.

On December 29, the LSU men's and women's basketball teams will be the first to hit the court. The women's team led by Kim Mulkey will face Albany at 1 p. m. , while the men's team, coached by Matt McMahon, will take on Mississippi Valley State at 6 p. m. Both games will be held at the iconic Maravich Center.

Ring in the New Year with the LSU football team as they play their last game of the 2024 season in the Kinder's Texas Bowl. They'll face Baylor, whose head coach Dave Aranda used to be the defensive coordinator at LSU. This game might give a sneak peek into what the 2025 season holds for both teams.

Kick off 2025 with LSU Gymnastics as they host Iowa State for their season opener on January 3. The team will unveil their SEC and National Championship banners on this special night.

The PMAC gets even busier on January 4 when the LSU men's basketball team hosts Vanderbilt in their conference home opener. The following day, the women's basketball team will host Auburn. But before that, they'll officially start their SEC play on January 2 with a game at Arkansas.

As January wraps up, get ready for the start of LSU baseball and softball seasons. Softball takes on Charlotte at Tiger Park on February 7, while baseball hosts Purdue Fort Wayne at Alex Box Stadium on February 14.
