It was nice to see a LSU vs UK game close to the end. Needs to happen more often.

Best of all it put the SEC spotlight where the ACC spotlight was supposed to be from 6:00 to 6:30! That was the best part of all of it. If the SEC is going to get better, they need the media spotlight on the SEC at the expense of the other conferences.

Game thread was rolling along, but as soon as the final score favored UK you have 1/2 dozen or more ref threads. Interdasting!

Refs called a good game overall, but that foul on Coleman in regulation was complete horseshite and had a massive effect on the outcome of the game.

So. Are UK fans worried about this team? They got beat badly by LSU away and needed help at home. What gives?

Not really. Kentucky gets everyones best effort. LSU has the ability to be a damn good team and cause some match up problems with Kentucky.

Start 5 freshmen, who are fairly immature.

It's pretty agreed upon that the foul at end of regulation and the no-call on the travel at end of OT were terrible calls. The timing kept UK in the game.

By LSU fans. I follow nearly every college basketball writer imaginable on twitter. Not a single mention of these being BS calls.

Obviously we'd like them to be further along at this point, but hitting the shot to win in OT is a big hurdle for them since it's been damn near impossible for them to close out games that close.

Meh. LSU has Sweet 16 talent with probably an NIT bid. For all the crying about Cal last season with that squad, how is it LSU isn't even a tournament team at this point with that talent? What gives?

Not true. Even you said it was a bad call in this very thread. The announcers also chipped in and you can also check MSB and elsewhere.

I suppose, although WCS and Alex P both played more minutes than Johnson. I can see how immaturity plays into it more whenever people are patting Randle on the back when he had a pretty bad game.

I don't think LSU has Sweet 16 talent, but they should have made the tournament. That was the goal and expectation for this team. They haven't been able to play well enough on the road to make that gap.

You base your sports opinions on the bullshite spewed from twitter?

The foul on Coleman was a terrible call. It's sad that you need social media to confirm that

They aren't at full strength? LSU only brought two scholarship guards to Lexington.

But other than that, team has been inconsistent, especially on the road.

Who are more like sophomores this late in the season

That may be the real point. Maturity is not specific to age.
