LSU’ season ended with a triumphant victory of the Louisville Cardinals and their Heisman Trophy winning quarterback, Lamar Jackson. There wasn’t a moment in the game where the Tigers didn’t look like they were in control, and they were one step ahead of the Cardinals all night.
It appears that kind of diligence hasn’t made its way into the university’s stadium security yet.
This morning, it was discovered that the field at Tiger Stadium was vandalized. The field has been covered and the investigation is ongoing.

According to #LSU PD’s daily crime log, there was a reported burglary last night at Tiger Stadium.

The matter is currently being handled by the LSU PD, who have yet to make any formal announcements on the case. Currently, the case is appended as “pending”.
How the offending party gained access to the field and what the repercussions will be remains to be seen. Might it have been the disgruntled fanbase of a team LSU took to task earlier this season? It wouldn’t be the first time something like that has happened.
Prior to their home game against Alabama earlier this season, the logo at midfield was defaced.
