So, Ole Miss has had the good fortune of playing both Utah and Stanford. I'm assuming they beat both, right? I know Ole Miss just took down Stanford. So, I'm expecting LSU to take down Utah, it shouldn't be a really hard game for them. Michigan may have been a tougher opponent, but I could be wrong.

Play solid perimeter defense and rebound the ball. If so, win by 15 plus.

There's one more common opponent that matters even less than the ones posted...

Mississippi Valley State (LSU won by 70, Utah won by 67)

These things matter when looking at projecting seeding and even then, not much. At this point the only thing that matters is the team right in front of them. I think LSU will dominate the boards and if they play defense like they did against Michigan? LSU to the Elite 8.

The key to this game, and the success of our team, is making outside shots.

We're a good defensive team and a strong rebounding team.

Angel Reese is going to get hers.

Last night, we got 37 points from Morris, Johnson, Williams and Carson. We have to have that. I think we made 6 three-pointers.

IF we're going to go any further in this tournament, these 4 women have to score.... and we've gotta make some shots from the outside. We'll have opportunities becuase the interior should be clogged up trying to limit Angel Reese.

Poole will shut her down like she did Brown. I bet she even starts again for that reason.

LSU was placed in the best bracket in terms of us getting to the final 4.

Utah and Indiana have no history in the tournament and LSU should be able to prevail against both teams.

I’d be on board. She was a game changer on D which helped give us a strong start. Plus Carson looked much more relaxed coming off the bench

It really was a great adjustment by mulkey and it worked for all parties involved

Yeah I've been kinda hard on Poole this season, but she had her best game of the year imo. She was outstanding.

On paper, Lady Tigers have a big edge... but the game is not determined on paper! Lady Tigers should win, and the only way Utah wins is being hot shooting... Lady Tigers are poor shooters/scoring and will have to defend and pressure/stop their shooters to get a victory. Just my opinion...

I like LSU to continue to win until we meet our match inside with South Carolina.

I want this team to win so bad! Alexis Morris and Angel come to play and I am confident we will win the game.

Can’t look past Utah but could be a great opportunity for the Tigers.

It’s still early but number 9 Miami up 14 on one seed Indiana. About halfway through the second.

Lol.

Poole is a rugged defender but she’s a 5’8” guard.

You really think Kim is going to match her up and expect her to stop a big-bodied All-American 6’2” fast and mobile forward where she’s giving away six inches and who knows how many pounds?

Pay attention.
