LSU's home away from home is the Georgia Dome in downtown Atlanta. Over the years the Tigers have celebrated many triumphs under its roof including winning three SEC Championships in football and advancing to the Final Four with regional semifinal and regional final wins in basketball. LSU has also claimed football victories over both local teams - Georgia and Georgia Tech - at the Dome.
LSU's favorite opponent in the Dome is Tennessee, with two SEC Championship Game wins in football and an SEC Tournament victory in basketball against the Vols.
