BATON ROUGE – The LSU men’s basketball team returned to practice on Thursday after Tuesday night’s road loss against No. 10 Texas A&M in preparation for a road trip to Alabama.
The Tigers and Crimson Tide will play at a sold-out Coleman Coliseum Saturday at 1 p.m. on ESPNU. The game will also be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network (Eagle 981. FM).
LSU is 11-7 and 4-2 in the Southeastern Conference while Alabama is 10-7 and 1-4 in the league after falling at Auburn on Tuesday. The Tide, under first-year coach Avery Johnson, got its lone conference win against South Carolina at home earlier in the month at a time when the Gamecocks were undefeated on the season.
