| And so they meet again, with similar records and similar regular-season stakes on the line. The No. 5-ranked LSU women's basketball team: 20-0, owners of the most wins of any team in the country. No. 2 South Carolina: 18-1, owner of two (Lordy) 40-point wins over ranked opponents. LSU goes to South Carolina on Thursday for a 7 p.m. showdown on ESPN. That's nice, but I ask for the second straight year, why is this game on a Thursday and not a Sunday? Come on, SEC schedule makers. Our Reed Darcey takes a look at the Tigers' run up to this year's showdown with this feature. Meanwhile, yours truly was at the rapidly chilling PMAC Monday for a gymnastics presser with coach Jay Clark, senior Aleah Finnegan and freshman Kaliya Lincoln. Lincoln is just doing one event, vault, for now because of a shoulder injury. But you will be hearing a lot more about her in the seasons to come. The No. 2-ranked Tigers are at No. 17 Arkansas on Friday. Last but not least, our Wilson Alexander was in Atlanta on Monday night for the CFP National Championship Game between Ohio State and Notre Dame and filed this report. Thanks for reading, folks, but let's be honest. You're home from work because of the winter weather, you should be reading some good stuff. Broaden the mind, ya know. Until next time, Scott Rabalais |
