LSU football had plenty of stars Saturday night.

Lane Kiffin.

A 51-10 demolition of Clemson.

More than 100,000 screaming fans.

And, of course, Livvy Dunne.

The former LSU gymnastics star was back in Baton Rouge for Kiffin’s first game at Tiger Stadium, and she immediately became part of the spectacle surrounding the new era.

That should surprise absolutely nobody.

Dunne has been one of the biggest names associated with LSU athletics for years. She helped the Tigers win the 2024 national gymnastics championship before retiring from the sport in 2025.

Now she is essentially an LSU celebrity for life.

And Saturday proved that.

Dunne was alongside Kiffin, Brooks Nader and Theo Von during the massive buildup to the Clemson game. She also appeared to be enjoying every second of the insanity surrounding LSU’s new head coach.

Then LSU went out and absolutely destroyed Clemson.

That is about as good as a return to Baton Rouge gets.

Dunne also has another massive reason to keep LSU close to her heart. Her boyfriend, Pittsburgh Pirates star Paul Skenes, was once LSU’s ace before becoming one of baseball’s biggest young stars.

So yes, Livvy has somehow become connected to LSU football, gymnastics and baseball.

At this point, she might as well have her own Tiger Stadium suite.

And with Kiffin now running the show, something tells me we have not seen the last of Livvy Dunne at LSU.

If anything, Saturday looked like the beginning of another wildly entertaining chapter.

LSU is back in the national spotlight.

And Livvy Dunne is apparently coming along for the ride.
