- Did loss to Texas drop LSU women's basketball in the latest polls?
BATON ROUGE – This past week, LSU women's basketball went 1-1.
The Tigers (22-3, 8-3 SEC) lost on the road to No. 4 Texas in a competitive game that was close in the fourth quarter. LSU bounced back after that defeat and routed Auburn by 33 points last Sunday.
