LSU Basketball To Be Featured On ESPN To Begin Season

As many predict that LSU basketball will be improved on the hardwood, so will the television coverage.

LSU basketball, led by Johnny Jones, will be featured on ESPN's tip-off marathon to begin the college basketball season.

The Tigers will take on UMass on November 12 at 10:30 in the morning in Amherst, Mass.

UMass was 21-12 a year ago and 9-5 in the Atlantic 10. The team was 9-5 at home a year ago including a 67-64 win over Harvard in last year’s ESPN Tip-Off Marathon.
