The highly anticipated women’s basketball game between 5th ranked LSU and 2nd ranked South Carolina has been postponed from Thursday night to Friday at 4 PM.
The historic snowstorm that hit south Louisiana on Tuesday is making it difficult for the Lady Tigers to travel to Columbia, South Carolina, so an extra day is needed.
LSU enters the SEC showdown with a 20-0 record, while the defending national champion Gamecocks are 18-1, with their lone loss coming against UCLA on November 24. The Bruins, who are now ranked number one, won on that day 77-62.
Kim Mulkey is 0-4 as LSU’s coach against South Carolina. The two teams met twice last year, with LSU losing at home to the Gamecocks and then falling to USC in the SEC Tournament Title game 79-72.
That game was marred by a shoving match that resulted in both benches clearing and multiple players ejected.
