The Tigers have advanced to the NCAA championships for the ninth time, and on Saturday, LSU will try to earn its first national championship in program history inside Dickies Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.
Coach Jay Clark’s team is joined by Florida, who also advanced out of the Tigers’ semifinal, as well as Oklahoma and Utah, which advanced out of the other. LSU will begin on bars while Oklahoma starts on vault, Florida starts on beam and Utah on floor.
“The message stays the same. My challenge to them is to stay true to who they’ve been all season,” Clark said in a release. “I want to go out there and just do our 24 routines. We know we’re not the favorites, but we’re going to go out there and compete hard. We’ve proven that’s what we do. This year has been incredibly rewarding with such a special group, and I just want them to enjoy it.”
This is the second time LSU has advanced to the final round since it moved to the “Four on the Floor” format in 2019 after it made the championship in that season. The Tigers ultimately finished second behind UCLA.
Here’s what you need to know to watch as LSU looks for its second national championship in as many weeks.
