The LSU Tigers will try to put the defensive clamps on a fourth straight opponent tonight at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center when the UC Irvine Anteaters come to town.

Airtime is 6:30 p.m. with tipoff at 7 p.m. You can listen to the game right here on KWKH AM 1130.

The Tigers (6-3) have held three straight opponents under 60 points in winning at Houston, Rutgers and this past Saturday night at home against Boise State. LSU was a 64-45 winner over the 8-2 Broncos, pulling away in the final eight minutes of the contest, using a 22-8 points in the paint total while holding Boise State's leading scorer without a point.

The defensive effort marks the first time since LSU held at least three straight opponents under 60 points since a five-game streak in late December 2006 that carried over to the start of January 2007.

LSU will again be without starting off guard Andre Stringer who fainted last week in practice prior to Saturday's Boise State game. Coach Johnson said that tests are still being conducted to determine his status for future games. Reserve guard John Isaac suffered a knee strain in the shootaround prior to the Boise State game and is listed as questionable for the UC-Irvine game.
