The No. 3 seed LSU (28-5) kicks off its March Madness campaign on Saturday at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center, squaring off against No. 14 seed San Diego State (25-9) in the first round.
Kim Mulkey's Tigers enter the tournament boasting one of the nation’s most explosive offenses, averaging 84.5 points per game, good for sixth in the country. After falling in the Elite Eight last year, LSU is eager to punch its ticket to the Final Four, though it faces a challenging path. South Carolina and Texas loom on the opposite side of the bracket, while USC and UConn are in a separate quadrant, making a deep run feasible if LSU stays healthy and locked in.
Meanwhile, San Diego State arrives with serious momentum, riding an eight-game winning streak to earn its spot in the Big Dance. The Aztecs will need every ounce of that confidence as they take on an LSU squad packed with star power.
