LSU Tigers and Oklahoma Sooners engaged in a heated matchup, resulting in ejections, technical fouls, and a memorable clipboard-slapping incident from LSU coach Kim Mulkey. The Tigers ultimately triumphed 107-100, despite an Oklahoma comeback attempt.
Tempers flared during Thursday's highly anticipated Top-25 women's college basketball matchup between the one-loss LSU Tigers and the Oklahoma Sooners . The game featured players shoving — which led to ejections — coach's technical fouls and a noticeable clipboard-slapping moment from LSU coach Kim Mulkey. LSU forward Sa'Myah Smith and Oklahoma forward Liz Scott were both tossed from the game after the shoving incident in the first quarter.
Oklahoma center Beatrice Culliton was battling for position in the paint with Smith when the two got tangled up. Culliton elevated her arm to create some separation, and Smith retaliated by pushing her to the ground. Scott, who was also in the paint area, responded by shoving Smith. Smith was corralled by Joe Schwartz, LSU's assistant of basketball operations. The teams separated and went back to their bench areas.
We saw a lot of things tonight,' Mulkey said. 'You saw ejections. You saw two teams score over 100. You saw a technical on the second flop. . . . I got teed up, and she told me I got teed up for pointing at the big screen. I was definitely looking at the big screen, and I was not real happy, but I don’t know if I point. But she’s across the way. Whatever.' The Tigers' 107-100 win over the Sooners improved seventh-ranked LSU's record to 22-1.
