LSU got an at-large bid, but Jackson State had to win their conference tournament to make it. The Tigers swept through the SWAC Tournament as they beat Southern, Alabama State and then Florida A&M twice to get the title and automatic bid.
They come into Friday having won five in a row and they are 33-17 overall. It has been a great year for the Tigers, but they are going to have to play their best game of the year if they want to shock LSU and pick up a big upset win.
