Before the basketball game last night, ESPN filmed an opening segment for the show on ESPN, SportsNation, with the help of the Maravich Maniacs. It will air today, so make sure you tune in!

Why was having a gigantic poster-head of Conan O'Brien considered to be "cool"? I don't get it.

Why do you think ragging on the Maniacs is cool?

Because most of them are really nerdy and most of the stuff they chant just isn't funny.

At least they show up and cheer. I don't give a crap if what they do is "really nerdy" they put their asses in the seats.

Do you go to the games and support the Tigers? If so, do you sit with the Maniacs?

Listen, I agree. Some of the cheers are pretty ridiculous, but it's not like I see the grads showing their support at the games. Do you even go to them?

Well They were there very early so the 60 or so students that were there early were grouped together so it made it look like there were a lot there. I think the student section used to be a ton better with guys dressing up and actually knowing stuff, but at least many of them go to the games. I'm not gonna hate on the student section because it's pretty hard to actually cheer for a terrible team. It's pathetic the arena was half-filled for a game against a Top 15 team on ESPN

Agreed...but most of the time, I am thinking to myself "just shut the hell up". A couple of them think they "get inside the opponents heads". Sorry...but you are mistaken. Shouting large quantities of stupid crap doesn't constitute "getting inside their dome"

all i know is that the maravich maniac section shows up and cheers a hell of a lot more than the rest of LSU's "fans".

All yall people ever do s complain, and bitch and moan about how it used to be better, and more crazy, yet never do I see these same people at the game. What is this, penis envy for the ones that actually go to LSU now? Jealousy? Who knows

You're making yourself look really bad. So, in other words, what you're telling us is that in order to see a good game with a good environment, everyone must cheer in a curteous fashion as well as make each comment very thought provoking to really get the opponents riled up.

I typed wrong emoticon.

I don't think he does know what he's talking about.

What I get from that section, and I sit close enough so that I hear almost everything coming from them...is that there are like 3 or 4 really vocal guys that yell shite CONSTANTLY...kinda like it is their chance at open-mic night and they are trying to make everyone laugh. Truth is, maybe about 1 of every 10 comments is funny, the rest being very un-funny. Maybe they should go for quality instead of quantity? And I have heard one of the guys talking about how he just knows he is getting inside the opponent's heads. Not so much.
