LSU Wins Second Straight, Beats Missouri 86-80

The LSU men’s basketball team ended the 2020-2021 regular season on a high note with a Saturday road victory over the Missouri Tigers 86-80.

The win improved LSU’s record to 16-8 overall and 11-6 in league place. That mark is officially good for third place in the SEC, and is LSU’s third consecutive year finishing inside the top-four of the conference; and for the first time in nearly 30 years LSU has won 10 or more SEC games in three straight seasons.

Saturday was a back and forth affair. LSU gave itself some breathing room in the first half with a 16-2 run that gave the Tigers an early 11-point lead.
