The LSU Tigers roll into town as a fledgling team teetering on the brink of a disastrous season that could end up getting their head coach fired. They’re also 63 spots better than Missouri in KenPom. 63 sounds like a lot, but they’re awwwwful.
No, no they’re not, Kim. They’re better than Missouri but not by a lot. LSU is one of three teams in the league with a current rating in the 100s, which is doing a good job of dragging down the rest of the league along with Missouri and Mississippi State.
LSU being terrible is a little surprising to me as I thought they’d be decent with the amount of talent on the roster and fewer distractions with Ben Simmons moving on.
