We haven't lost to an LA team since '88, we were down 48-38 at one point in the second half. Shooting has just been terrible tonight. 8:25 to go LSU 57 Northwestern 52
Early second half; Tigers maybe starting to pull away... Don't know too much about teams in the Southland Conference. :geauxtige
Seems like the "big 3" played well tonight--Bo, Tas' and Warren. SE LA is actually a decent team, and had played Miss St pretty close, so this is an interesting barometer game. When you get productivity out of each of Tas', Warren and Bo, the Tigers will be pretty competitive. It makes a difference that Bo is healthy and getting his mind right. Tas' has also picked up his game considerably over the last couple of games. You're also starting to see players like Dotson, Kinsley, Ludwig and Bass settle into their roles. I hope that Dennis Harris' back problems aren't too serious, b/c you'd like to see him more out there. You can't get too excited about wins over more LA schools, but it's good to see the Tigers win, and win after being down in both games early. :geaux:
SLU has a big time player - Patrick Sullivan. I think he'll probably play in the NBA next year. LSU did a really nice job in the second half. Tasmin and Storm are just bad-ass basketball players.
