Basketball Melts Down Late, Blows Texas Tech Game 76-71

Stop me when you’ve heard this one before: the LSU basketball team blew a game they had no business losing.

The latest installment came Saturday afternoon in the PMAC when LSU (11-5, 6-3) blew a seven-point lead to No. 10 Texas Tech (12-5, 4-4) and got outscored 12-0 over the game’s final 59 seconds of regulation.

Below is a condensed version of the meltdown for those of you who missed it

It’s the kind of loss that has plagued the LSU basketball program for its entire existence. This game joins recent great examples like Kentucky in February 2015, the 2015 NCAA Tournament game against NC State and against Oklahoma in 2016.
