When LSU opens the 2010 football season on Saturday against North Carolina in the Georgia Dome, fans will be able to follow the Tigers through social media like never before.

Starting with the team’s departure from campus on Friday afternoon, LSU will provide the ultimate social media experience for Tiger fans with behind-the-scenes photos and video as well as updates through Facebook and Twitter.  

Fans can follow LSU football’s official Facebook and Twitter pages, Facebook.com/lsufootball and Twitter.com/lsufball, to receive updates and inside information throughout the weekend. LSU’s official Facebook site for football – www.Facebook.com/lsufootball - currently has over 175,000 followers making it second in college football to only Penn State’s Facebook site.
