As the saying goes, there ain’t no rest for the weary and that’s exactly the case for the #21 LSU men’s basketball team (13-1, 1-1) who play its third consecutive top-25 opponent Saturday night inside the PMAC.
LSU looks to continue its recent run of success over the #18 ranked Tennessee Volunteers (10-3, 1-1). The Tigers have won three straight over the Vols and got big performances out of Javonte Smart in all three of those wins.
Tennessee is one of the few defenses in the country that can match LSU’s. In fact the Tigers and Vols are first and second in KenPom’s adjusted defense metrics.
