Hey Fightin' Podcast: T-Bob Hebert of Barstool Sports Talks LSU Football, Lane Kiffin, 2026 Season & More

T-Bob Hebert, a familiar voice in South Louisiana, joins the latest edition of Hey Fightin' Podcast, live from the Wake Up Barstool studio in Chicago. Hebert was hired by Barstool in May of 2025 after a significant stint hosting morning radio in Baton Rouge. A former player from 2007-2011, "T-Bob" gives his thoughts on the 2026 Tigers, Lane Kiffin and the loaded home schedule, as well as some insight into his big transition from Louisiana to Chicago.

🔼 Course Set. LSU cross country has its 2026 slate! The Tigers open Sept. 4 at the Battle for New Orleans before hosting their lone home meet, the LSU Invitational, at the UREC Field Complex on Sept. 18. Road trips to the 51st Annual Paul Short Run and the Arturo Barrios Invitational close out the regular season ahead of the SEC Championship on Oct. 30. The Tiger women are looking to build on a historic 2025 that saw them advance to the NCAA Championship for the first time in program history after a second-place regional finish!

🔼 Coaches Committee. Join LSU Baseball's inner circle; the Coaches Committee, founded in 1984 by legendary coach Skip Bertman, is the longest-tenured booster organization in LSU athletics, with support flowing directly to the Baseball Excellence Fund to help Tiger players succeed on the field, in the classroom, and in life. More info here.

🔼 Battle in Winston-Salem. No. 16 LSU Soccer went toe-to-toe with No. 18 Wake Forest for 90 minutes in a tightly contested top-20 season opener, with the Demon Deacons pulling away late for a 2-0 result. The Tigers matched Wake Forest shot-for-shot through a scoreless first half and pushed hard for an equalizer after falling behind in the 69th minute, with Linka Ono firing back-to-back shots on target in the 76th. Ava Galligan led LSU with five shots, while Audur Scheving made five saves in her Tiger debut. The home opener awaits Sunday against Northwestern State at 6 p.m. CT on SEC Network+.
