I know it may be hard to do, but our players and coaches need to forget about who we are playing and try to focus on playing ball. The Duke tradition and all that comes with it, as well as playing in the sweet 16, can certainly be overwhelming if we allow it to be. I worry about our young players being in awe of them and the situation. I like our chances of winning if we can just hang in there the first half. I really believe we match up very well against Duke and our athletes can take over in the 2nd half. We must avoid foul trouble and take care of the ball. I know the focus is on stopping Redick and Williams, but we need to make sure that we don't completely ignore McRoberts and allow him to get easy baskets. Sucks to be at work and not in Atlanta... LSU 77 Duke 75
Some interesting articles on the ajc.com about the game. There is an especially testy editorial by Mark Bradley that isn't favorable speech of John Brady.
99, I've never been one to be superstitious but, let's not change a thing! Thanks for posting these threads, too. Mac, I hope you have a blast at the game and a safe trip....I'm envious as hell! Good luck to the players and Coaches....let's give them a hell of a game and send them home! Geaux Tigers!!!
Testy editorial is putting it mildly. But he also had a great quip about coach K: But obviously Bradley pissed off everyone. The comments on the article from the Dookies are pretty funny.

coach K and JJ did come off as douche bags yesterday....our guys are loose and there guys seem to be a little test and hopefully a litttle tight....maybe they know whats coming to them......5 hours away.....gosh I cant wait.
Just got done with most of my work...About an hour ago I had the notion to drive the 4.5 hours to atlanta. But, figured it would make for a long drive back in the wee hours of the morning. Let the countdown begin!! BEAT DUKE!!!!:geauxtige :geauxtige :geauxtige :geauxtige :champs:
I am a Kentucky fan, but I hope that you don't mind my saying GO TIGERS! Please kick some dookie a$$. You guys have lots of SEC support behind you tonight. The whole state of Kentucky will be cheering for you. Good Luck!:thumb:
