Just wanted to get the thread up early. LSU is a good squad and you're playing at home but I still think this is a game that we can win. Coming off a comeback OT win over Arky and 2 straight road wins, Bama has some confidence! We're only playing about 7 deep so if you guys keep the tempo up, it can be a problem for us. I just cant believe that we are playing so well without Chuck Davis. He's an awesome player and good person but it seems like this team is playing for him. They are moving the ball better, playing more determined, and Steele and Davidson have really stepped up their game! Thoughts? Insight? Looking forward to a great game! Hope we can just keep it close!
Nobody's got the height or skill inside to defend LSU on offense. LSU is playing the best defense in the league right now against the outside shot of guards. Jermareo doesn't scare me none up against T-Time. The key is not letting Jean Felix rape us like he did last year at the PMAC. (That was one of Antonio Hudson's worst games as a Tiger... He scored 1 point and never got out on defense against Felix and his wide open ass looks). If Tasmin Ds up on Felix and the guards continue what they do best, LSU wins by 15 at home. 71-56. If it were at Alabama LSU wins by 4, 61-57.
Felix hasn't played well at all this season. He is starting to pick his game up a little as of late though. His defense is still there but he's struggling with his shot. Hope he breaks out at the PMAC. Davidson may not scare you, but he's going to get his. You're going to have to worry about Steele and our freshman forward Alonzo Gee. Gee is very good on D. He's not the smartest on the offensive side of the ball-but he can score. We are young--very young. We will be playing 3 true freshmen and they will get lots of minutes. Steele will play the whole game, you can count on that.
How tall is this Felix the Cat fella? If he is 6'5 or under, we will be seeing Temple on him... He is our Bruce Bowen
Davidson will be the victom of 7-10 blocks by T-Time... And you're young? Sometimes we have 4 freshmen and a sophomore on the floor when it is Voogd Temple T Mitch Thomas Davis
RedElephant, how good is Richard Hendrix doing this year? I can't wait to get to the PMAC Saturday. I just hope about 12,000 more people are thinking like me. I hope to see about 24,000 butt cheeks in the PMAC Saturday afternoon.
Felix is a long 6'7''. He loves to shoot over smaller defenders also because he's got crazy hops! He's doing so so. A lot more is expected of him. In 21.5 min/game, he averages just over 8 ppg and almost 7rpg. He has loads of potential but he's playing like a freshman. He's missed some easy lay-ins and needs to get that jumper down. One thing about him though...He loves to rebound and once he's got it, you're not getting it from him. I swear he's going to pop a ball one day! :hihi:
