LSU had a fine run during its pre-conference schedule. So did Vanderbilt. Both teams know that things will get significantly more challenging when they meet to open Southeastern Conference play on Saturday afternoon in Baton Rouge, La. The Commodores (12-1) are playing just their second game on an opponent's home court. The Tigers (11-2) are 9-0 at their place. Despite their overwhelming win totals, these two teams are among just six from the SEC that are not in the AP Top 25. "I think if you're a competitor, this is what you want to be a part of," LSU coach Matt McMahon said.
