LSU's track record against really experienced teams is troubling.

Florida State - Up big and lose a tight one in the end.
Houston- Up big and lose a tight one in the end

LSU actually played pretty good defense in those games. The difference was they got crushed on the glass. LSU got out-rebounded by a combined 26 rebounds. Reid had 6 rebounds COMBINED in both games.

Since that time LSU has become one of the better rebounding teams in the country and Reid has become a MUCH more willing rebounder. That's been the difference in this team from then and now.

There is reason to be concerned playing MSU. But getting killed on the glass isn't one of them. Today's version of this LSU is much different from the one in late Nov.
