In the 50's-80's seems like we always played:
Ole Miss, MSU, Alabama, and Florida every year.
We played Auburn in '69-'72, '80/'81, and '88 -on. We played Kentucky more than Tennessee and Georgia in the 60's-80's....
In the 50s and 60s LSU played The U. many times.
In the 60's and 70's we played A&M almost every year - and it was always in Baton Rouge. Not sure why, and also Ga.Tech.
In fact in late 60s/early 70s we played 3 old SWC schools almost every year - Texas A&M, Rice, and Baylor.
LSU also played many attractive OOC games:
Oregon in 70s, USC in '79 and '84, Colorado in early and late 70s/early 80s, Nebraska in '75/'76, Indiana in '77/'78, Notre Dame in '70/'71, '81,'84-'86, and '97/'98, Ohio State in '87/'88, Wisconsin in '71/'72, Oregon State in '82, Wake Forest in early 70s, Florida State in '79-'83, and'90/'92, K-State in '80,

I know I miss some of those good non-conference games from the mid-70's until conference expansion. MSU played teams such as Maryland, Illinois, Miami, Florida State, Missouri, Rice, Louisville, Baylor, Texas,Colorado State, K-State, Syracuse, Washington, and Navy over that period. State actually won more than we lost against those teams. We beat every one of them except Missouri(0-2) and Maryland(0-1),
