The LSU men’s basketball team rarely wins on the road but on Thursday night they did just that.  The tigers led by a single bucket going into the half and it seemed like this was one of those games that may go down to the wire.  LSU stormed out in the second half and took control of the ball game and thats when Johnny O’Bryant III ” Caught fire”.   The sophomore guard scored 30 points, had 10 rebounds, and added 1 block to lead the tigers for a career high night.  The tigers cruised down the stretch and the game was not in doubt.

Andre Stringer had 12 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, and 2 steals.  Jalen Courtney came off the bench to score 6 points, and had 1 rebound.  Andrew Del Piero had 6 points as well, with 7 rebounds and 1 block.

The tigers move to 14-8, 5-6 SEC while the gamecocks fall to 12-12, 2-9 SEC.
