Plus you prolly losing to Duke tonight. So good luck


Duke is a Top 5 team. Why wouldn't I expect that game to be a tossup at best with a young squad and Poythress still coming back from injury along with them returning a lot of from a national championship team?

You know, realistic expectations and things.

Will LSU fans ever learn about counting their chickens in any sport?

Calm down, it's a nationally televised game against a brand name school. LSU should be very good this year.


I never said they won't be. I don't know what UK will have either until well after the Duke game tonight. January is usually a good measuring stick.

That's my point though. If you're calling shots against teams in conference play at this point in the season, I question how long you've been watching basketball.

Maybe, he's only playing one year and won't be a stats accumulator. Hell, it would be tough for him to break into LSU's GOAT all-time starting 5.

Thanks for being the sec basketball policewoman because someone said we are going in dry on the conference.

Watched and played my whole life. This is the deepest LSU team and probably the most talented since the hay day of the 90s for us. Just know one thing, we have alot more than just Ben. He is the center piece to a ton of long range shooters and can shoot the lights out, and we play very scrappy defense.

I see he played the most minutes on the team against Kennesaw State. Nice. He should be good and worn out for the post season.

Benny is healing his wounds as this thread goes on, so he is feeling better and better.

Didn't y'all make the final four in 2006?

And at those who think Marquette is a good basketball team right now.

Ya they cover that song my man. You should check out Allen Toussaint (RIP) - I'm surprised you aren't familiar with him.

By that I meant I'm not gonna start hyping this team 2 games in. I'm confident, but wary.

Doesn't change the fact that you're being miserable
