Michigan will face No. 8 seeded LSU on Monday (7:10 p.m., CBS) at Lucas Oil Stadium for a trip to the Sweet 16.
The Tigers are one of the most confounding teams in the field. They have an elite offense (5th in the country) built on elite shotmaking and a laissez-faire approach to defense. They’ve won five of their last six games, with the only loss during that stretch coming against No. 2 seed Alabama in an SEC Championship game that came down to the final shot.
Here’s everything you need to know about the Tigers, the matchup, keys to victory, and how things could play out on Monday night.
