You already know the reason why: "I like how well our defense is playing". LSU has done this consistently now. It's plain that this is a defensive-oriented team.


Playing good defense is one thing but a team going 8 minutes without a bucket is a tad lucky as well.

Ok, for the sake of argument I will allow that Marquette had a little bad luck. But I think LSU's defense had more to do with that than you're apparently willing to give them credit for.

The big test will be against Virginia. If LSU can win in a similar fashion against the Wahoos, I think even the doubters will come around and start believing.

You're right. But this was a deserved LSU victory. We won all the hustle plays, played sound defense, and took good shots. Can't ask for much more against an undefeated top 10 team.
