I didn't hear it....he actually said that? Wow.....unprofessional!Really sloppy ball handling in response to LSU's hot shooting.
I especially liked Andy Kennedy's "Geaux Tigers" heading into one of the commercial breaks. Wouldn't seem like he'd have a preference between us.

They also banked in 2 three point shots. I think LSU was around 30% from three coming into this game and they shot 66% this game. Really the difference in the game. Only complaint is that we dug ourselves a 15 point hole early on like we normally do. Almost impossible to come back from that deficit especially on the road. Four years into CAJ era and we still have scoring droughts and lulls where we just look like apathetic. Then, once we're firmly behind we start playing with our hair on fire. Have to find a way to balance that out so we stop getting ourselves into such a big deficit..Watched recorded game after getting home late. Stats for the game were very close with one major exception being 3-point shots that gave LSU the nine point margin; Bama 7-24, LSU 10-15.
Same mistakes with turnovers as usual, dribbling into a pile of people.
LSU point guard gave Bama fits.
Giddens gave good effort in his 10 minutes of play. Reese, Norris, and Jones all had a good game.
Bama has a deep bench; I was wanting Coach Johnson to up the full-court and half-court pressure a little. Started to trap some late; had the LSU point guard throw a laser pass while laying on the ground...
it really is, should be a lot of funThis is going to be a weird SEC season.
If only we could've played with the intensity of the last 10 minutes for the preceding 20. The lull in the middle/poor three defense killed.
I like the look of this match-up zone, with half or 3/4 court press. Too many guys getting loose playing man.

Good points. One knock on CAJ in the NBA was his teams' in ability to guard on the perimeter. This also seems to be a consistent problem with late rotations and such. Several of their 3s were open looks. No defender. No hand in their face. This needs to be addressed as well. This team is talented and can make the tourney.They also banked in 2 three point shots.

Not even wide open threes. They were hitting step back 3's with a man guarding them.I watched the game. LSU hit several prayer 3's and we shooting 80% from 3 in the 1st half. No one is going to beat a team hitting 3'd at that clip. It didn't help that we were on short rest and they had 11 days off to work on anything they wanted with no time limit while school was not in session. The geniuses at the league office screwed us again. We had UK, then turn around and face a team with a over a week and a half off on short rest. The we have to play at home and then have 3 straight road games. Ridiculous.
Yep. When we got down by 19 early in the 2nd half I knew we would make a run but I knew it was unlikely we get over the hump since we would spend so much intensity/effort to get back in the game.They also banked in 2 three point shots.
