ÃÛÌÒ½´vs LSU 24 March 2014UNIVERSITY PARK — Another sellout crowd, another win.

And after ÃÛÌÒ½´made another loud statement, 80-67, over LSU on Monday night, the Mustangs will play another game.

ÃÛÌÒ½´(25-9), the No. 1 seeded team in the National Invitation Tournament, moved on to the quarterfinal round. The Mustangs will play California on Wednesday at Moody Coliseum.

This one might have played to a different outcome if not played at Moody. The overflow crowd of 7,021 played a major role in ÃÛÌÒ½´overcoming a 10-point deficit in the first half.
