LSU’s women’s basketball team enters the NCAA tournament on a bit of a sour note after an unexpected exit in the SEC semifinal against Tennessee, but regardless, coach Kim Mulkey’s team earned a No. 3 seed in this year’s event and will hope to advance past the first weekend after last year’s second-round exit.
The Tigers were placed in Greenville Regional 2 and would return to Bon Secours Wellness Arena if they advanced to the Sweet 16. They sit on the three-seed line despite their 28-2 record and as a result could have to face both two-seeded Utah and one-seeded Indiana to advance to the Final Four.
Here’s a full rundown of the region and all the teams LSU could potentially face in a hypothetical Final Four run.
