Wasn’t a good night for hoops in Louisiana. LSU put on a brutal performance against Arkansas as the Razorbacks sailed to an 85-65 victory. The Tigers are playing without second leading scorer Keith Hornsby. With 2:02 to play, Ben Simmons was sent to the bench after his fifth personal foul. With the loss, LSU may have ended any hope that they’ll be invited to the NCAA tournament. The Tigers host Florida at the PMAC Saturday night.

Because of severe weather, Southeastern Louisiana postponed last night’s scheduled men’s basketball game against UNO to 7pm tonight. Also today, Tulane hosts East Carolina with a 7pm tipoff.

In the NBA, the Wizards knew better than to let Pelicans star Anthony Davis have much action last night, and the tough defense worked. The Pels lost in Washington last night 109-89, and Davis was held to just 9 points but did grab 20 rebounds.

ESPN cites “a league source” in reporting the Saints will part ways with franchise-leading receiver Marques Colston in the coming days. Many say this doesn’t come as a huge surprise. Colston is leading the franchise with 9,750 yards receiving and 72 touchdown passes, but last season you could tell the beating he took early in his career started to take a toll. The Saints would save $3.2 million dollars in cap space by releasing the 32-year-old.

LSU Baseball coach Paul Mainieri is already shuffling the lineup after three games. He’s moving third baseman Cole Freeman to shortstop and insert freshman O’Neal Lochridge at third base. The switch will begin today as LSU travels to Beaumont Texas for a 6pm game against Lamar.

McNeese State couldn’t handle ninth-ranked Houston last night as the Pokes fall to the Cougars 14-1 on the road. Today Tulane hosts Alabama A&M. Southern travels to face Auburn. UL-Lafayette heads to Ruston to take on Louisiana Tech. Southeastern hosts Alcorn State. UNO is at Southern Miss. Nicholls State is at Alabama. Northwestern State hosts Sacramento.
