Odell Beckham Jr. has nothing but love for LSU, and he’ll be rooting hard for the Tigers at the NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championships.

Ahead of LSU stars like Livvy Dunne and Haleigh Bryant competing to bring their squad a title, the former Tigers star wide receiver lent his voice to an epic hype video. Check it out below, it’ll be hard not to run through a brick wall afterwards.

Moreover, LSU punched their ticket to the NCAA Championship after finishing in the top spot at NCAA Semifinal I, Thursday afternoon at Dickies Arena.

The Tigers finished on top in the afternoon semifinal with a team score of 197.475 to advance to Saturday’s championship. Fellow SEC counterpart Florida (197.400) also advanced out of the first semifinal session. California finished third with a score of 196.9125 and Denver finished fourth with 196.500 in the prelims.

Head coach Jay Clark couldn’t be more proud of his team for getting to this point, and knows how special of a run they’re on.

“I am just so proud of this team. They are such a special group. I just wanted to enjoy the ride and take it as far as we possibly could,” said Clark. “We’ve been riding the wave and going where it takes us. The adversity of this team has been spoken about so much and you saw the fight in them today.

“At the end of the meet, I just told them how in awe I am of them. I want them to enjoy these moments.”

More on LSU Tigers, NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championships

Continuing, LSU will have to go through the No. 1 Oklahoma Sooners, No. 2 Florida Gators and No. 5 Utah Utes if they’re to be victorious on Saturday. It all begins at 4 p.m. ET on ABC, where only one team will be crowned.

The Sooners are quite simply a dynasty, winning last season’s iteration, and four of the last five titles. While Florida has won as recently as 2015, Utah hasn’t captured the ultimate victory in 28 years, and LSU has never won the NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championships.

After the Tigers won the NCAA Women’s March Madness Tournament, LSU could continue their hot streak on Saturday. Can Livvy Dunne and Haleigh Bryant lead the Tigers to a title like Angel Reese did on the hardwood a couple of weekends ago? They’ll have their shot, and the support to do so.
