Lane Kiffin staged the most star-studded Tiger Walk before Alabama game

  • On Saturday, LSU head coach Lane Kiffin walked down Victory Hill before the game against Alabama accompanied by a celebrity-filled group, creating a star-studded entrance into Tiger Stadium.
  • Desperate to break his 0-5 lifetime record against the Crimson Tide, Kiffin used the star-studded entrance to change his luck in his first attempt as LSU's head coach.
  • Atlanta Dream star Angel Reese, Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes, Basketball Hall of Famer Shaquille, and actor Kevin Costner joined Kiffin on the stroll, which WAFB-TV's Jacques Doucet captured on video.
  • Kiffin also deployed psychological tactics by painting the visiting locker room pink, a strategy inspired by former Iowa coach Hayden Fry that he previously used at Ole Miss.
  • LSU, holding a 6-2 record, must focus on execution and ball protection to overcome the Crimson Tide in the high-stakes SEC matchup, as success depends on handling Tiger Stadium's intense atmosphere rather than pregame theatrics.
