“This is another attractive non-conference series that our fans will enjoy and our football program will benefit from,” Alleva said. “To be able to bring LSU football to the northeast part of the country for a football game will be a unique experience and then to have Syracuse return the trip to Tiger Stadium in 2017 will be a nice addition to our home schedule.”

Alleva also announced on Wednesday that the Tigers will open the 2015 season against McNeese State in Tiger Stadium on Sept. 5.
