The Wildcats are also unbeaten and this game will be their first true test of the season as well.

Injury Report for LSU
The LSU Tigers will continue to be without transfer center Noah Boyde who's still recovering from his surgery last season. Tyrell Ward was ruled out for the season before the season opener by Matt McMahon as he steps away to focus on his mental health.
The Return of Cam Carter
The biggest storyline heading into this game is the return of Cam Carter as he returns to Kansas State. Carter played the last two seasons at Kansas State where he was a massive part of the Wildcats run to the Elite Eight in the 2022-23 season. When Carter returns to campus it'll be interesting to see how the fanbase receives him but, given all the success he had there the fanbase should receive him well.
