Old Dominion led 50-40 with 11:29 remaining before LSU started chipping away at the lead with free throws.

LSU went up 21-9 with 9:21 left in the first half on a jumper by Mickey but Freeman answered with a 3-pointer to jump start a 20-7 run. Freeman gave the Monarchs their first lead at 29-28 and after a jumper by the Tigers' Darcy Malone, Keenan Palmore made a layup and Freeman another jumper for a 33-30 halftime lead.
