Baton Rouge, La. (AP)-John Broad scored 20 of his 26 points in the second half and had 16 rebounds to help the highest-ranked Obun beat the LSU 87-74 Wednesday night for his 12th straight victory.
Objn (19-1, 7-0 Southeast Conference) corresponds to the best start of 20 games in the history of the school. Kelly Miles added 13 points, Chad-Backer Masar had 11, and Tahaad Petford 10.
Kam Carter led LSU (12-8, 1-6) with 24 points. Ji Bailey had 13 and Jordan Sears ended with 11.
Rud: Rud dominated his predominant physicality, athleticism and depth. He has repeatedly used dual team traps to harass LSU guards in turnover and had 18 possessions with multiple shot attempts.
LSU: LSU’s only hope in the disorder decreases the set of early rpm, but 15 turnover from the first half led to 15 points per Auburn.
Key
Pettiford’s 3-Indication of Pettiford’s second chance lit 11-4 runs in the second half.
Key statistics
I tried to season 80 field goals.
Forward
On Saturday, LSU hosts Texas and Obun is No. 23 Mississippi.
