BATON ROUGE – A previously announced tournament trip to Maui and the start of home-and-home sets with Houston and Memphis highlight a 12-game non-conference schedule that will start the first year of LSU Basketball under Coach Will Wade.
The season will begin on Friday night, Nov. 10, against Alcorn State in a game set for the night before the Southeastern Conference football game with Arkansas in Tiger Stadium on Nov. 11. It will be the first of eight home games in November and December at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center as the Tigers will play for the first time under a new high-definition video board that has been hailed as the largest for an on-campus basketball arena.
