LSU Makes HISTORY With 21-Sport Jersey Patch Deal! Feb 17, 2026

Show notes

LSU has made college athletics history.

The university announced a groundbreaking agreement with Woodside Energy to serve as the official jersey patch sponsor for all 21 varsity sports — a first-of-its-kind deal in collegiate athletics.

In this episode, we’re joined by Sarah Bairstow, President of Louisiana LNG for Woodside Energy, for an exclusive conversation about how the partnership came together and what it means for LSU and the state of Louisiana.

We discuss:

• Why Woodside sees Louisiana as a long-term investment
• Why LSU was the right partner for this historic agreement
• The financial and strategic impact of a 21-sport sponsorship
• And perhaps most notably — why Woodside agreed to change its logo colors from red and white to purple, gold and white to match LSU uniforms

This isn’t just about a patch on a jersey. It’s about the evolving business model of college athletics, NIL realities, revenue generation and how flagship programs are positioning themselves for the future.

Is this the blueprint other schools will try to follow?
