OP needs to come to an LSUWBB game in the PMAC. The 10K fans who come to the games have real affection for our players and are great fans.

We enjoyed being at that game in NO last night. It is the best this team has played so far this season.

As season ticket holders in BOTH WBB and MBB, it was a great night to be a Tiger.
I was at that 1969 Ole Miss game in Jackson. It was my freshman year at LSU. I believe that, had we won that game, we would have won the NC. It is singularly why I despise Archie Manning to this day.
WE will be there today for BOTH games.

One Comparison of 2026 SEC Schedules

Posted by GeorgeWest on 12/12/25 at 8:35 pm
Using SEC regular season wins in 2025 to rank SEC contenders 2026 schedules (SEC).

1. Oklahoma 37 wins
2. OMiss 36 wins
3. LSU 35 wins
4. UGA, Texas 34 wins
6. A&M, Tennessee 33 wins
8. Bama 32 wins
9. Vandy 31 wins
Using SEC wins in 2025 as a standard...

LSU's 9 opponents in 26 had 35 wins.
UGA's 9 opponents in 26 had 34 wins.

Not much difference between our schedules.
Tennessee's stadium is the worst stadium in the SEC, IMO.
OP is correct.

In 2026, (1) just [play better and coach better than what occurred in 2025, and (2) win at least 8 games in the regular season.
We went in 2014 I think it was. It was below freezing at the game which was at night. We left at halftime it was so uncomfortable.

We will play EVERY SEC team TWICE in a 4 year period.

We will play Arkie, A&M, and OMiss every year during those 4 years.

What some folks do not realize is that, OM, Arkie, and the Ags as "perms" might change after 4 seasons.
OM will beat Tulane handily, then lose to UGA probably handily this time.
Alabama and Tennessee have good football and MBB programs.

I bought my two tickets months ago, before BB season tipped off. I have lower arena seats for $25 each plus fees.
OU Football: still no NC in this century.

Geaux Green Wave!

More fans watch WBB than college baseball.

My wife and I have season tickets to both MBB and WBB as well as baseball. The wbb games are very enjoyable especially with Kim Mulkey running the program.
We will have too many bowl defections I fear. Plus disjointed coaching at best.
It will be very interesting if and when UGA, Aggies, Bama, OMiss take on Indiana, Ohio State, Texas Tech. The NC will come from those 7 teams, IMO.

Texas Tech has gone even longer...since 1955.
What Cignetti has already done at IU is beyond amazing. The greatest program turnaround in college football history.
