Well then, that was pretty solid. LSU opened SEC play with a bang Friday night and ended Kentucky’s regular-season winning streak at 3 with a 198.125-197.600 win to move to 1-0 in the SEC. LSU led after each rotation in a meet that wasn’t in any serious doubt once beam went without a hitch. The win marked head coach Jay Clark’s 50th at LSU and 99th for his career, and it was the earliest 198 in SEC history. The broadcast said it was the first 198 in the country, but LSU got beat to the punch there by Ball State, David Letterman’s alma mater, who did so at the most controversially judged meet in quite some time.
