The Cats enter Saturday’s game with a growing sense of urgency. Now tied for second in the Southeastern Conference’s East division, the Cats (19-9, 8-5 SEC) could use a win against a ranked opponent to boost their bid for an NCAA tournament berth. The Cats have only beaten one ranked team so far this year — No. 24 Tennessee on Jan. 13. At the time, Tennessee was ranked No. 24 in one poll, unranked in the other.
No. 18 Louisiana State enters Saturday’s matchup with a comfortable seat atop the SEC. Currently at 24-4 and 12-1 in conference play, the Tigers can clinch the regular season SEC crown with a win at Rupp Arena today.
