SI Swimsuit: Tailgate Edition / SI Swimsuit

The air? Crisp. The leaves? Changing color. The fall? Oh, it’s been here—and with it came the highly anticipated return of college football season!

And this year, SI Swimsuit is taking this show on the road for the 2025 Big 12 Tailgate Tour. Teaming up with Batiste, SI Swimsuit will travel to three different universities, kicking off at the University of Arizona this Saturday, October 4. Then, over the coming weeks, the team will make stops at Texas Tech and Texas Christian University, respectively.
