Big game tonight for the LSU men’s basketball team as the Tigers look to avoid a second loss to Auburn this season. LSU’s NCAA Tournament resume has a few bad losses on it and it can’t afford another loss to Auburn, if the Tigers want to be a part of March madness. Tip-off is at 6 PM on ESPN U.

Also tonight…McNeese State is at Central Arkansas. The Cowboys are 4-and-10 in league play and lost by five points to Lamar on Saturday.

In action last night…Alabama State edged Southern 56-54, UNO topped Southeastern Louisiana 74-73. Tevin Broyles scored the winning bucket with a layup with three seconds left and Northwestern State thumped Nicholls State 79-57. Zeek Woodley had 25 points and becomes the second fastest player in Northwestern history to score 1,000 points in his career.

Tonight in Lafayette, Ragin Cajuns coach Tony Robichaux will go after his 1,000th career win as his U-L Lafayette baseball team will host Robichaux’s alma mater, McNeese State. Robichaux has won 736 games at U-L Lafayette, and he’s posted 263 victories at McNeese.

U-L-M’s game against Southern Miss today at four o’ clock has been postponed because of the weather. Northwestern State at Baylor and Southern versus Nicholls State has also been posted.

LSU outfielder Beau Jordan will have survery later this week on his right knee and he could be out for the season. Jordan suffered the injury in the Tigers 16-2 win over Boston College on Saturday.

Big win for the Pelicans last night as New Orleans rallied back from an 18-point deficit to beat Toronto 100-97. The Pels won the game without Anthony Davis, who has an injured shoulder. Luke Babbitt led the way with 18 points as he hit four three-pointers.
