The Tigers improved to 15-4 overall on Saturday after picking up a much-needed non-conference win on the road against Texas in Austin. LSU was led by freshman forward Trendon Watford, who posted a career-high 22 points and 6 rebounds.
This marks the seventh game that LSU has played this season with a final point margin of one or two points.
They are truly the ‘Cardiac Cats.’
Next, LSU will return home to host Alabama for a 6 p.m. CT tip on ESPN2.
