LSU vs. Quasimodos in Maui GameDay thread

Shooting bricks. Shooting 18% tonight, season avg is 60%.

 

D out of position on every possession and can't throw it in the ocean on offense.

 

Still another half to play. It's a process fellas. Come out with energy, refocus, and let's make a game of it. Great opportunity to see what we're made of. GEAUX TIGERS!

 

Just shooting 35% for the game, still nearly half the season avg. Not sure how much of that is ND defense, taking bad shots, or just having a bad night shooting. This team will have some nights like this but LSU is still a sight better than last year.

 

We didn’t look any better than last year tonight. It didn’t look like ND did anything fancy, but their game is the most sophisticated we’ve seen. We got blown out, Wade didn’t have an answer. Big time bummer.

7PM CST tomorrow vs Marquette. Optimism way down, see what Wade has for us tomorrow.

 

It's basketball. Things like that happen. One year in the finals the Celtics beat the Lakers 148-114 in game 1 and lost the next game and the series. Of course we don't have Larry Bird but nobody we play has Magic and Kareem.

 

Kinda looked like the guys got a bit of the big head and it threw off the groove. Or we aren’t as good as we looked vs Michigan. Could end up being a good thing, but it makes post-season play seem unlikely. I’d say we looked like the worst SEC team last night.

But yeah, college basketball is a volatile sport.

 

I was worried they'd have a letdown after their masterful win the night before. Next year will be the year...and the year after.

 

Notre Lame is ranked 12th/13th so not a push over like their football team. Hopefully good lessons learned from this effort.

 

Oh yeah... Sampson injury 30s in sucks. Expected to be out a month with high ankle sprain.
