Hoops test

It will be interesting to see how LSU plays against Connecticut on Saturday.

The Tigers played well at home against Texas A&M, but not so good against Washington on the road.

UConn hasn't really been tested all that much so it will be interesting to see how the Huskies respond.

I don't think this game makes or breaks either team's season. Last year, LSU's narrow defeat gave the Tigers a sense of confidence that boosted the team into SEC play.

I don't know that a home win would give them anywhere near the same level of confidence since this isn't the same UConn team.

Still, it's on a national stage and should be a great game.
