Just got home from the game. Fantastic finish. A lot of fun to be at.

The offense looked like it had so little movement compared to Marquette's. Honestly, Marquette looked like a much better team. They had the size to match LSU and used it.

The refs were far too whistle happy.

Woj needed to get a T. Dude was 6 feet past his line. Looked like John Brady out there.

Simmons is a fricking stud. Enjoy him while we can. He will go down as an all time great. I do wish he and the guards would have attacked more at the end when their bigs were in foul trouble.

Great atmosphere. Lots of LSU fans. Even more Marquette fans.

Definitely didn't think there was half as many Marquette fans.

To other posters...just because CJJ doesn't scream and yell doesn't mean he isn't involved. He stands for 9/10 of the game. What do you think he's doing? I sat 30 feet away from him, he talks to players the entire fricking game. One possession, Gray fouled Fischer for a 1 and 1....their guard goes to the line and makes the first. Jones then points out the wrong guy is shooting. The refs were idiots and changed the call....do you know why CJJ waited to tell the refs after the kid shot? Because it's a technical and Johnny was being savvy. He gets way too much flack

Was there last night. Turned out to be an awesome game after an ugly start. Result sucked, but other than that I had a great night.

- Simmons is the real deal, not much more you can say. Running out of superlatives.

- Ellenson from Marquette is legit as well, he was overwhelming ERIII with quickness and skill. I'm sure the ankle is still bothering him but Robinson continues to look a step slow out there.

- Once we went to the ultra small lineup with 4 guards and Benny things started to open up. Did a great job of creating turnovers with the press.

- We probably win this easily with even a normal shooting night from Blakeney. Once Hornsby and Victor are added into this mix, this team is going to be a force.

I noticed this too. Bunch of players just standing around. Very little player/ball movement. The last possession was just ugly.

Marquette is not a very good team. LSU's raw young talent can only go so far. JJ needs to make better play calling if he expects this team to make a run in March.
