Kim Mulkey's LSU (30-5) will face No. 2 seed NC State in the Sweet 16 of the 2025 NCAA Tournament on Friday. The game will tip off at 7:30 p.m. EDT from Spokane Arena in Washington.

In her post-game press conference after beating LSU, Mulkey spoke highly about the Wolfpack, but insisted that her team plans to make it to the Elite Eight.

"I recall that I love Wes, their coach, Moore," Mulkey said. "Great guard play. Great guard play. We were able to beat them, and Wes was very complimentary of our team after the game.

"So you’ll see outstanding guard play. I think it will be two well-coached teams. And we’re vying to win one more game to get to an Elite Eight. They beat some good teams in the ACC. So they’re probably much better today than they were when we played them, and I hope and think that we’re much better."

The Wolfpack beat No. 15 seed Vermont in the first round of March Madness before crushing No. 7 seed Michigan State 83-49 in the second round.
