Rankings from AP Poll

The 1993 LSU Tigers football team represented Louisiana State University (LSU) during the 1993 NCAA Division I-A football season as a member of the Southeastern Conference in the Western Division. The team was led by Curley Hallman in his third season and finished with an overall record of five wins and six losses (5–6 overall, 3–5 in the SEC).[1]

LSU suffered its worst loss in program history, 58–3 to Florida at home October 9. Following a loss at Kentucky, the Tigers went on a three-game winning streak, including a 17–13 win over defending national champion Alabama at Tuscaloosa, that ended the Crimson Tide's 31-game unbeaten streak (the NCAA later shortened the streak to 23 when it forced Alabama to forfeit all of its 1993 victories (and a tie vs. Tennessee) due to violations involving All-America defensive back Antonio Langham).

With a bowl berth on the line in the season finale, Arkansas came to Baton Rouge and gouged the Tigers for 412 yards rushing in a 42–24 triumph, leaving LSU with its fifth consecutive losing campaign.
