One of the benefits of the LSU Tigers football program is its facilities. When hosting potential recruits, it can be a driving force when it comes to the final decision. Where does it rank among the best in the country?

According to a vote held by 247Sports’ Collin Kennedy, LSU finished tied for eighth with a total of three votes. The same number as Oklahoma, Penn State, Texas, and Texas A&M. 247Sports polled All-American game recruits for how they view the top facility.

Call it good timing. LSU’s first season in 2019 inside its new year-long makeover of its football ops building paid off in a huge way for the Tigers, who won a national championship that season. Featuring state-of-the-art upgrades, the Tigers have everything from a nutrition center for student athletes to a futuristic locker room that features customizable player pods at the cool cost of $28 million. Part of that came from a donation via former LSU All-American Tyrann Mathieu. New coach Brian Kelly has a lot to work with here.

The top spot belongs to the Oregon Ducks, who have the backing of Nike’s Phil Knight. Next is the Georgia Bulldogs and then Brian Kelly’s former team, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Plenty of SEC teams made the cut with the Alabama Crimson Tide at No. 4.
