Late-game officiating controversy looms large as LSU suffers a brutal one-possession loss to Vanderbilt after a missed out-of-bounds call in the final 30 seconds that could not be challenged under NCAA rules, sealing LSU’s fate. The loss drops LSU to 0–2 in SEC play for the first time in the Kim Mulkey era, as turnovers, rebounding issues, and a quiet night from Flau’jae Johnson proved costly, while Vanderbilt continues to surge behind a historic 32-point performance from Mikayla Blakes. We also recap a chaotic day in women’s college basketball, including Baylor’s win over Iowa State, Stanford’s overtime upset at North Carolina, Duke’s rise against Notre Dame, Kentucky’s injury setback, and tight conference battles across the country.
