Danielle Blagg's three-point play with 1.6 seconds left lifted Tulane to a 65-62 overtime victory over No. 20 LSU on Saturday night. LSU rallied from a 10-point deficit with 11:08 left to send the game into overtime. The Lady Tigers had a chance to win the game in regulation, but Jeanne Kenney only made one of two free throws with 1.4 seconds left to tie the game at 58. Trailing by two in overtime, LSU's Krystal Forthan hit a jumper to tie the score at 62 with 26 seconds left. That set up Blagg's game-winning play. LSU was playing its first game since its' 51-40 victory against No. 14 Georgetown last Wednesday. The loss on Saturday snapped LSU's streak of 11 consecutive road wins against Louisiana teams since a 76-72 loss at Tulane on Dec. 31, 2000. LSU leads the all-time series against the Green Wave with a 28-5 record.
