I have to say that for the first time in many years, I thoroughly enjoyed watching this team create space and get rebounds last night. win tomorrow and they will be in the top 25.

very good team.

Probably not, but it will be a very big win. Would go a long way in helping LSU secure a NCAA birth. I'd go as far as to say, it would be Jones' biggest win in his 3 years (over icedome).

LSU last night was aggressive and it showed in their blocks, turnovers forced, rebounding, and points in the paint. Overall it was exactly how they should play.

I thought it was by far their best performance of the season last night....the backcourt has to score consistently for this team to be successful otherwise teams will just load up on guarding Mickey and Martin everytime they touch it...If Quarterman, Hornsby, and Gray can average 40ppg combined thats a recipe for success for this team I think.

If they eliminate some of the ugly turnovers and take care of the ball, they can play with anyone. They still at times look rushed and out of control. That is probably Jones's coaching though...

Personally I think they should slow it down at times and get Martin and Mickey the ball down low. Martin is at the top of the key way too often...He is 6'10" SHEESH!

Classic TR overreaction. Beating the 16th ranked team on the road doesn't get you in the top 25 with bad losses. You know how many teams are ranked with two losses? 2. Oklahoma who lost to Wisconsin and Creighton and Michigan St who fell to Kansas and Duke. We won't get ranked with losses to ODU and Clemson, not even close

Hornsby needs to learn that he isn't Steph Curry

Yeah I had expected more from him the way he was hyped up...his shot is some kinda ugly and I cringe when he shoots ....but obviously its how hes shot all his life and its comfortable to him I guess. Hopefully his shooting % goes up cause we need him to score.

Hornsby is srappy and I like it. He boards very well for a 2guard.

We do commit about 5 ugly turnovers every game. Like we cannot execute a simple hand off without turning it over. That is what is frustrating and should be so easily corrected with coaching.
