Events listed in chronological order

2025 Texas A&M

Highlights:

Won series vs then #1 Tennessee in Knoxville
Won series vs then #2 Arkansas in Fayetteville
Won series vs then #2 and eventual champ LSU in College Station
As the 14 seed won games vs #11 Mississippi State & #6 Auburn before losing by 1 run to eventual champ LSU

Lowlights:

Fell to unranked by March 18th and never again sniffed the rankings
Started SEC play 1-9
Swept by Bama
Swept by Vanderbilt in Nashville
Swept by Texas in Austin
Swept by Mizzou in College Station by a combined score of 8-23 and Mizzou would go 0-27 in all other SEC games

Non-conference losses:

Cal Poly
Texas State
vs. Arizona
vs. Oklahoma State
UTSA
New Mexico State

Notable injuries:

Gavin Grahovac in the 6th game

Final record:

30-26 (11-19)

2026 LSU

Highlights:

Started the season at 11-1
Took series vs then #19 Kentucky
Took series vs Tennessee in Knoxville (better than my team did)

Lowlights:

Lost series to Sacramento State @ home
Fell to Unranked by March 17th beating out Texas A&M by 1 day (though they would crack back into the rankings at #24 for one week in April)
Swept by Ole Miss
Swept by Texas A&M at home
Swept by Mississippi State
Swept by Georgia

Nonconference losses:

McNeese
Northeastern
@Louisiana
Sacramento State
Sacramento State
Bethune-Cookman

Notable injuries:

Cooper Moore - 24th game
Jake Brown - 41st game

Current stats:

29-24 (9-18)

Tale of the tape:

LSU's highlights are demonstrably worse than A&Ms
#1 to UR in record time is a push
SEC being swept both sit at 4 - A&M definitely wins currently with two home sweeps (LSU can still tie) including the worst SEC series in history vs Mizzou
Non-conference losses they both racked up 6 but LSU's are far more embarrassing
LSU is defending champs, A&M were defending national runner-up

So barring a stunning collapse by Florida and/or shocking run by LSU in the SECT the odds on favorite to win this battle royale and claim the title is your 2026 LSU Tigers!

I didn't watch A&M so I'd have to go with 2026 LSU.

They didn't really do anything well.

Easily 2025 Texas.

#1 preseason.
Huge NIL.
Unlimited resources.

- Still can’t beat Georgia.
- Lost to bottom dweller Florida.
- OT win versus bottom dweller State.
- OT win versus bottom dweller Kentucky.
- Missed playoffs.
- Cried about missing playoffs.

Finished #12 which would be good enough to tie for 17th best season in Texas A&M history!

Ags lost almost entire coaching staff. Lost a lot of games

LSU had entire coaching staff back, excellent portal clsss(on paper at least) and a pedigree of excellence.

Is your question serious or are you being a complete dumbass? Tigers are in an inexplicable death spiral of sweeps and being run ruled. It’s fugly as shite.
