Strong finish. I was hoping we could at least score 80 with our mediocre offense cause LSU was averaging giving up like 94 a game

Would rather win than lose. Glad to see them raise their level of play when it mattered and closed out the game.

Donta Hall and Riley Norris with the big plays at the end!

81-66 win.. closed on a 30-12 run. I thought it was an exceptional 2nd half performance. That makes 2 double digit wins on the road in the SEC.

I thought Collins really wanted this one. He was very active on the defensive end, shot well, and got pulled the ball out at the right times

Hale has been essentially been knocked out of the rotation. He gets in sometimes, but pretty rarely

With so many references to Avery's connections to Baton Rouge it would not surprise me if LSU comes after him hard post JJones era. That would not be cool in my book.

Avery Johnson on Donta Hall: "I didn't command him, I didn't demand anything. I asked him politely 'Would you please wake up?' And he did."

Johnny Jones will most likely be fired after this year. Avery gets that 2017 class next year. There's no way he would leave.

Florida, South Carolina, and Kentucky are tied for first in the SEC. Alabama and Miss State are tied for second.

Definitely not so soon.But he becomes successful here and LSU continues to struggle,I would see that as a certain possibllity.

If he becomes successful here and chooses to leave, he'll be back to the NBA or to a much better college program than LSU. He hasn't even lived in Louisiana since college I don't think.

We're 5-1 with our only loss being to #23 Florida since Avery scrapped half the playbook

Yeah, and he is still playing with lineups somewhat.


Anyone know the status of King?
