The XFL will kick off on Saturday, giving football fans everywhere a taste of their favorite sport after the finish of the NFL season.
With the reboot of the XFL, it means there’s an opportunity for fans to pick a fresh team to root for.
Obviously there will be some geographical connections for a lot of fans, but with only eight teams, geography might not come into play too much.
So who should LSU football fans cheer for?
My first thought was the Houston Roughnecks. Geographically, it’s the closest team to Baton Rouge. And former Tigers offensive lineman Toby Weathersby is on the roster
But after looking over the rosters, I think it’s clear that LSU fans should be cheering for the DC Defenders.
