The non-conference portion of Will Wade and his LSU Tigers’ schedule was far from normal.
LSU lost out on four games due to COVID protocols, including a highly anticipated game against Wade’s former employer, the VCU Rams; LSU dropped a game Thanksgiving weekend to a really good Saint Louis team; and the Tigers have also seen a true freshman, Cam Thomas, emerge as one of college basketball’s best scorers.
Now the focus turns to SEC play, and LSU (5-1) opens up with a home game against the Texas A&M Aggies (5-1).
LSU has owned the series as of late, winning the last six games.
