A year ago the LSU women’s basketball team (22-4, 10-3) would’ve lost Thursday night’s game against Mississippi State (15-10, 6-7), Kim Mulkey said as much.
Going on the road against a team fighting for its NCAA Tournament life LSU went into the fourth quarter down two and had been outscored by nine points in the second and third quarters. But this LSU team isn’t like previous years, and this group of Tigers would go on to win by 12 thanks in large part to a 17-3 run over the game’s final 4:53.
“I don’t know how we won this game other than their will to win and their will to not be afraid to take that shot,” Kim Mulkey said.
