Bayou Brew 9/30: A Slam Dunk
We're on the hardwood with LSU women's hoops.
Good morning, LSU Fam. Five former Tigers are gearing up for postseason play as the 2025 MLB playoffs get underway today!

The five eligible Tigers are 3B Alex Bregman of the Boston Red Sox, RHP Aaron Nola of the Philadelphia Phillies, RHP Kevin Gausman of the Toronto Blue Jays, RHP Alex Lange of the Detroit Tigers, and RHP Paul Gervase of the Los Angeles Dodgers.
While the Phillies and Blue Jays earned first-round byes, the Tigers, Red Sox, and Dodgers all open their series today. More details on times here.
What else is stirring in today’s piping hot Brew? Check it out below!

🎥 LSU+: THE REAL DEAL
The Real Deal: Rashad King, LSU Men's Basketball Guard
On the latest edition of The Real Deal, transfer guard Rashad King of LSU Men's Basketball joins the show. King, who started all 32 games for Northeastern, led the team averaging 18.5 points per game. He talks about his decision to come to Baton Rouge & more.
Your YETI Game Changer of the Week is LSU women’s volleyball player Laurel Cassidy!
In the Tigers’ 3-1 Victory over Arkansas on Sunday, the freshman libero led the back row with a season-high 14 digs. Cassidy is now up to 71 digs on the season.

🔼 Under The Lights. Another night game is on tap for the Tigers after they come back from this week’s bye. LSU will welcome South Carolina to Tiger Stadium on October 11 for an evening kick-off; the game will get underway at either 6 p.m. CT on ESPN, 6:30 p.m. CT on ABC, or 6:45 p.m. CT on SEC Network. The exact start time will be released after October 4’s slate.
Meanwhile, the Tigers (4-1) checked in at No. 13 overall in the AP Poll and No. 13 in the Coaches Poll through the first five weeks of the season.
