The LSU Tigers reclaimed the SEC's spot atop the college football world with a win over the Clemson Tigers in the 2020 College Football Playoff National Championship, further extending one of the program's many impressive non-conference series leads.

LSU is among college football's most elite and storied programs, and you don't get a seat at that kind of table without earning it over sustained periods of success against a wide variety of opponents.

With the kind of talent and coaching that has come through Baton Rouge for the better part of the last century, the proof of LSU's success beyond its SEC presence is simply in the pudding. Keeping that in mind, here's a look at three Power 5 conferences the Tigers have dominated the most in non-conference play.
