Dear LSU Fans, Welcome back to Tiger Stadium for the 2022 LSU Football season. There is no better feeling than walking into our iconic stadium – this pantheon of concrete and steel that has stood for generations – and breathing in the incomparable sense of imminent possibility. On any given night in Death Valley, a record could be shattered, a legacy could be established, or a once-in-a-lifetime memory could be forged. Whether you’re a student-athlete taking the field for the first time in purple and gold, or a lifelong season ticket holder back in a familiar season, the feeling of togetherness, opportunity, and expectation is equally intoxicating. A spirit of victory and vitality endures within this place we call home. More than anything else, that is what makes this place and this program so special: this special intersection between the deeply rooted traditions of our past and ever-present hope for the future. It’s a reminder of what we have accomplished and a promise of what we can still yet achieve – of where we have already been and where we can still yet go. As we embark on a new era of this historic program, let us both hold on tightly to the glories of what has been achieved by the legends who have preceded us and remain focused also on building upon that legacy. Let’s write the next chapter of LSU Football, together, one victory at a time. And let’s make it the best one yet. Geaux Tigers!
Scott Woodward LSU Director of Athletics

2022 POSTSEASON TICKET INFORMATION During the course of the 2022 football season, LSU football season ticket holders will receive information by e-mail regarding the opportunity to apply for tickets to any postseason games in which the Tigers may participate. At that time, a deadline will be established for applying for tickets. Possible postseason games include the SEC Football Championship Game, the College Football Playoffs, and/or a holiday bowl game. If the demand for tickets exceeds the supply available to LSU for any particular game, a distribution system utilizing the LSU Priority Point System will be used to determine ticket distribution. Tickets for any postseason games involving LSU will be allocated first to players, coaches, LSU students and athletic department
staff. Next, an allotment of tickets will be distributed through the LSU Priority Point System, based on points accumulated for contributions to LSU Athletics, the Tiger Athletic Foundation, LSU Foundation and LSU Alumni Association. To be eligible to purchase tickets based on the LSU Priority Point System, the applicant must be a football season ticket holder. The number of ticket requests from football season ticket holders will be measured against the number of available tickets to determine if any limits must be imposed. LSU will make every effort to accommodate as many of its fans as possible. Ticket orders and seat locations are not accepted nor assigned on a first-come, first-served basis.

For the safety of participants and spectators alike, at no time before, during or after a contest shall spectators be permitted to enter the competition area.

BRIAN KELLY HEAD FOOTBALL COACH
CAREER RECORD 284-97-2 (1ST, ACTIVE COACHES) 2018, 2020 COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFFS 2009, 2012, 2018 NATIONAL COACH OF THE YEAR
The Brian Kelly era of LSU football begins in 2022 as the winningest active coach in college football takes over as head coach of the Tigers. Kelly comes to LSU as the most accomplished hire in program history. Kelly joins LSU – which has won national championships under each of its last three head coaches – with more than 280 career victories in his collegiate head coaching career, the most among active FBS coaches. He is one of only five active FBS coaches who have guided their programs to multiple undefeated regular seasons since 2009, and he has led his teams to the College Football Playoffs in two of the last three seasons. In 31 years as a head coach, Kelly has amassed a record of 284-97-2, which ranks him first among all active FBS coaches in career victories, ahead of Alabama’s Nick Saban (272 wins) and North Carolina’s Mack Brown (265 wins). Kelly has only had two teams finish below .500 during his 31-year collegiate career. For the past 12 years, he has served as the head coach at Notre Dame. He departed South Bend as the Irish’s all-time winningest coach with 113 victories, moving ahead of legendary Knute Rockne for the top spot in 2021. His 12-year mark at Notre Dame stands at 113-40, which includes a 54-9 mark over the past five seasons.
During his Notre Dame career, Kelly led the Irish to the 2012 BCS national title game as well as College Football Playoff appearances in 2018 and 2020. He was named National Coach of the Year by numerous outlets in 2012 and 2018. He’s the only coach to win the Home Depot Coach of the Year Award more than once, and he’s done it three times (2009, 2012, and 2018). In 12 seasons at Notre Dame, Kelly’s teams won at least 10 games seven times, including this year, as the Irish are 11-1 and ranked No. 6 in the nation. Notre Dame’s current streak of five straight seasons with double-digit wins includes a 10-3 record in 2017, followed by a 12-1 mark in 2018, 11-2 in 2019 and 10-2 in 2020. Individually, Notre Dame players claimed eight consensus All-America honors playing for Kelly, while the Irish had players win nine national awards during that span. Kelly’s Notre Dame teams have produced 55 NFL Draft picks since 2012, including 10 in the first round. Academically under Kelly, the Irish had eight players earn the prestigious CoSIDA Academic All-America honor, and three were selected as National Football Foundation Scholar-Athletes. As a team, Notre Dame consistently ranked among the nation’s top four in the NCAA’s Graduation Success Rate.

SONGS OF LSU “FIGHT FOR LSU”
(LSU FIGHT SONG)
Like Knights of old, Let’s fight to hold The glory of the Purple Gold. Let’s carry through, Let’s die or do To win the game for dear old LSU. Keep trying for that high score; Come on and fight, We want some more, some more. Come on you Tigers, Fight! Fight! Fight! for dear old L-S-U. RAH! “TIGER RAG”
(HOLD THAT TIGER)
Long ago, way down in the jungle Someone got an inspiration for a tune, And that jingle brought from the jungle Became famous mighty soon. Thrills and chills it sends thru you! Hot! so hot, it burns you too! Tho’ it’s just the growl of the tiger It was written in a syncopated way, More and more they howl for the ‘Tiger’ Ev’ry where you go today They’re shoutin’ Where’s that Tiger! Where’s that Tiger! Where’s that Tiger! Where’s that Tiger! Hold that Tiger! Hold that Tiger! Hold that Tiger! “TOUCHDOWN FOR LSU” Tigers! Tigers! They’ve come to town, They fight! They fight! Call a first down, Just look them over, and how they can go, Smashing the line with runs and passes high and low. Touchdown! Touchdown! It’s Tigers’ score. Give them hell and a little bit more. Come on you Tigers, Fight them, you Tigers, Touchdown for LSU. Rah! U. Rah!
LSU ALMA MATER Where stately oaks and broad magnolias shade inspiring halls, There stands our dear Alma Mater who to us recalls Fond memories that waken in our hearts a tender glow, And make us happy for the love that we have learned to know. All hail to thee our Alma Mater, molder of mankind, May greater glory, love unending be forever thine. Our worth in life will be thy worth we pray to keep it true, And thy spirit dwell in us forever…L-S-U. “HEY FIGHTING TIGERS” Hey, Fightin’ Tigers, Fight all the way Play Fightin’ Tigers, win the game today. You’ve got the know how, you’re doing fine, Hang on to the ball as you hit the wall And smash right through the line You’ve got to go for a touchdown Run up the score. Make Mike the Tiger stand right up and roar. ROAR! Give it all of your might as you fight tonight and keep the goal in view. Victory for L-S-U! (Adapted from the original composition ‘Hey, Look Me Over’ from the Broadway production ‘Wildcat’.)

COMPLIANCE RULES
Consequences to Boosters for NCAA Violations • Institutions are required by the NCAA to notify boosters of consequences regarding rules violations. Boosters found in violation of NCAA rules are subject to losing benefits and privileges, including season tickets. • The NCAA Committee on Infractions has processed cases in which penalties have included both the disassociation of boosters with the institution and the loss of season ticket privileges.
Responsibility of the Institution Each institution shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the Association (NCAA) in the conduct of its intercollegiate athletics programs. It shall monitor its programs to assure compliance and to identify and report to the Association instances in which compliance has not been achieved. In any such instance, the institution shall cooperate fully with the Association and shall take appropriate corrective actions. Members of an institution’s staff, student-athletes, and other individuals and groups representing the institution’s athletics interests shall comply with the applicable Association rules, and the member institution shall be responsible for such compliance. [NCAA Constitution 2.8.1] Representative of Athletics Interest (Boosters) A “Representative of the Institution’s Athletics Interest” (booster) is anyone who is known (or should be known) by a member of the institution’s executive or athletic administration to: • Participate in or have been a member of a sport support group or a booster club. • Make or have made a donation to Louisiana State University Athletics or Tiger Athletic Foundation. • Provide or have helped arrange employment for student-athletes or provided benefits to enrolled student-athletes. • Have been involved in promoting the University’s athletics program, in any way.
Please note: Once an individual is identified as a “Representative of the Institution’s Athletics Interest,” (booster) the person retains that identity forever.

Recruitment of Prospective Student-Athletes • A prospective student-athlete is defined by the NCAA as any person who has begun classes for the ninth grade (seventh grade in men’s basketball and softball for camp/clinic purposes). • A prospective student-athlete remains a prospect even after he or she has signed a National Letter of Intent or accepts an offer of financial aid to attend Louisiana State University up until the point that he or she reports for the first day of classes for a regular term (fall or spring semester) or attends classes during the summer prior to initial full-time enrollment. Recruiting Contacts • All in-person, on- and off-campus recruiting contacts with a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s) shall be made only by authorized institutional coaches or staff members. A coach is not permitted to recruit off-campus until he or she has been certified on an annual basis on applicable recruiting rules. • A contact is defined as any face-to-face encounter between a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s) during which time any dialogue in excess of an exchange of a greeting occurs. Boosters are prohibited from contacting a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s) to encourage the prospect to participate in intercollegiate athletics at Louisiana State University. The following are specific restrictions that apply to boosters: • You are prohibited from telephoning/texting/ writing or contacting a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s). • You are prohibited from providing entertainment during the prospect’s official/unofficial visit. • You are prohibited from providing transportation for a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s) to visit our campus. • You are prohibited from providing the prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s) with anything of monetary value that is not available to the general public/LSU student body (availability must be publicized).
2022 FOOTBALL FAN GUIDE
Rule of Thumb #1: Do not interject yourself into the recruiting process. As a booster, you are permitted to: • Notify our coaches about prospects in your area that may be strong additions to our teams. • Attend high school or two year college athletic contests or other events where prospects may compete; however, you may not have contact with a prospect or the prospect’s relatives or legal guardian(s). • Continue existing friendships with families of prospects, but you may not attempt to recruit the prospect (any pre-existing relationship with prospects/ their families must be vetted by the Compliance Office). Benefits for Enrolled Student-Athletes • Receipt of an award, benefit or expenses by a studentathlete, not authorized by the NCAA, renders the student-athlete ineligible for athletics competition. • An extra benefit is any special arrangement by an institutional employee or a representative of the institution’s athletics interest to provide a studentathlete or the student-athlete’s relative or friend a benefit not expressly authorized by NCAA legislation. In general, boosters may not provide anything or make special arrangements for student-athletes (and prospective student-athletes) and/or the student-athletes’ friends or relatives that are not available to the general student population or general public (must be publicized). Examples of extra benefits not allowed by NCAA rules include, but are not limited to, the following: • Providing cash or loans in any amount, or signing or
co-signing for a loan. • Providing gifts of any kind, including birthday cards and holiday gifts. • Providing special discounts for goods and services (e.g., movie tickets, car repair, legal services, clothing, haircuts, meals). • Providing the use of an automobile, telephone. • Providing free or reduced rent or housing. • Providing student-athletes money for the exchange of complimentary tickets. Rule of Thumb #2: Do not provide student-athletes or their friends or relatives with a benefit or service without permission from the athletics department. As a representative of the institution’s athletics interest, you are permitted to: • Invite a student-athlete into your home for an occasional meal (once a semester), but please coordinate such activity with the respective head coach or with the Compliance Office. A request form must be completed and approved by the LSU Compliance Office prior to inviting the student-athlete. • Meet with and receive autographs from studentathletes during LSU-sponsored pre-season events (i.e. Fan Photo Day or Meet the Team). Please be aware it is not permissible for you to sell the autographs or use the autographs to raise money for a special project. Rule of Thumb #3: Do not hesitate to contact LSU Athletics with a compliancerelated question. The breakdown above is just a brief overview - Remember “Always Ask Before You Act!” If there are any questions at all, please contact LSU’s Athletics Compliance Office at (225) 578-3891.
