LSU played frickin street ball. Lots of one-on-one play. I counted multiple trips in a row where we had 2 or less passes on a possession.

Settled for contested jumpers. A lot from really bad spots on the floor it felt like.

UT owned the boards. (haven't seen stats-just an assumption from watching the game). LSU's rebounding in the 2nd half was turrible.

Nobody for LSU could get to thye hole. It got to the point where everytime a jumper was thrown up I was just praying for a trash bucket. Didn't happen much.

LSU needs more depth. We tried to press which was non-effective.

Yall got a good team.

Appreciate that.

When Maymon and Stokes come down on the boards and hit free throws and Barton, Richardson, and McCrae hit their shots it's a tough team to beat.

Inconsistency is the problem

hickey can get to the rim relentlessly, trouble is he is afraid of contact because he is a poor FT shooter so he usually looks for the kickout or pulls back and resets.


the biggest problem with this team right now is the poor production from the vets... JOB, stringer, shuga, hickey. you can only rely on a young stud like mickey or a raw talent like martin so much.

still think they get it together but the last two games have been miserable. no emotion whatsoever. cant play baketball without emotion or what happened last night becomes a theme.
