Alabama rolled into Baton Rouge in search of their 20th win on the season, but LSU won a hard fought battle 80-77 in overtime.
The game started off a bit rough for the Tide. On the first possession, LSU’s defense completely lost Jahvon Quinerly in the corner but he missed a wide open three then, after an offensive rebound missed another just as open from the same spot. That kicked off a 13-5 LSU run to open things, but the Tide showed fight that they have lacked at times. After the early struggles, Quinerly caught fire and led the Tide to a two point lead at the break.
