It was a nail-biter for nearly its entire 40-minute run-time, but LSU survived and advanced as the lower seed in its Sweet 16 matchup against No. 2 UCLA on Saturday.
The Tigers led by seven at the half but found themselves trailing in the fourth quarter.

Now, the Tigers will face either top-seeded Iowa or Colorado in the Elite Eight on Monday night. For now, here are the best photos from the win.
