LSU women's basketball score at Tennessee Lady Vols: Live updates
LSU women's basketball can nail down one of the four double-bye spots in the SEC Tournament with one win out of its final three regular season games.
The No. 13-ranked Tigers (23-4, 10-3 SEC) could — and would prefer to dispel any suspense — clinch one of the top four seeds for the conference tourney with a victory at Tennessee on Sunday morning (11 a.m., ESPN). But the Lady Vols (16-9, 9-4) are the toughest remaining challenge of the final three contests which includes a road game at Georgia and the regular season finale against Kentucky at home March 3.
Kim Mulkey and LSU have won five straight games as star Angel Reese has reasserted herself as an unstoppable force for the Tigers. She's averaged 19.3 points and 14.2 rebounds per game in SEC play.
On Sunday inside Thompson-Boling Arena, Reese as well as Aneesah Morrow will have to contend with Lady Vols star Rickea Jackson.
Jackson is second in the league in scoring at 18.9 points per game and averages 7.9 rebounds to go along with it. She's arguably the best all-around player LSU has seen this season.
