The game ended after the bottom of the eighth inning due to the SEC 10-run rule.
LSU, which improved to 38-20 on the year, has won five in a row and 16 of its last 21 games. The Tigers are 12-5 in their last 17 games against SEC teams.

LSU will play at 4:30 p.m. CT Thursday against the winner of Wednesday’s game between Arkansas and South Carolina. LSU’s game on Thursday will be broadcast on the LSU Sports Radio Network, and it will be televised by the SEC Network.
