The (9-4, 0-2 SEC) LSU Tigers are set to take on the (10-5, 0-2 SEC) South Carolina Gamecocks in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center tonight at 7pm CT, watch live on ESPN3 or listen live on 98.1 with Jim Hawthorne.
Both teams come into this matchup looking for their first SEC win of the season and the Gamecocks have yet to win a game on the road. LSU is a good home team only losing one in the PMAC thus far to a far superior Florida Gators team in the conference opener.
