LSU TIP-OFF

The #5/5 Lady Vols (11-1/0-0) open SEC play on Thursday at 7:05 p.m. Eastern time, as they play host to #16/16 LSU (9-2/0-0) at Thompson-Boling Arena.
CSS will have the telecast, with Matt Stewart and Joe Ciampi calling the action, and the live stream can be found on ESPN3.
Prior to the game, Tennessee will honor Lady Vol legend Candace Parker by retiring her jersey in a ceremony that begins at 6:45 p.m.
Tennessee enters the game on the heels of a 110-42 blowout over Lipscomb in Knoxville on Sunday afternoon, giving UT its 14th-straight win at home.

LSU comes to Rocky Top with a 10-2 mark after rolling past Jackson State in Baton Rouge on Monday night, 72-45.
The Lady Vols have won seven straight in the series, thanks to a nail-biting 64-62 triumph in Baton Rouge on Feb. 7, 2013, when Bashaara Graves hit a shot in the paint while surrounded by three defenders with .8 remaining on the clock.
To allow fans plenty of time to arrive and get to their seats prior to the 6:45 p.m. jersey retirement ceremony for Candace Parker, Thompson-Boling Arena doors will open earlier than usual at 5:30 p.m. Thursday.
The first 2,500 fans will receive a life-size Candace Parker poster.
