I think Hammink proved he is a viable option at backup 4. If any of our post players get into foul trouble I think he should be getting minutes before Courtney. He plays stronger and has great range for rebounding.

Just saw a really interesting tweet...


Frank Martin ?@FrankMartin_SC
How about this 4 everyone that says that the SEC is weak: SEC has 9 Teams in RPI Top 100... Big 10 has 8, ACC has 7, Big 12 has 6.

I am so excited for Saturday! I really think we can go into Columbia, MO and get an unexpected win.

Exited for Saturday! Got to keep that 7 seed or take the 6th away from Mizzou. I like our chances in the tournament if we can some how avoid Florida.

I can tell people are starting to get pumped about basketball cause after every win I get about 10-15 text messages saying how good we looked... I bet I could reach 20 with a win this weekend. haha

McRae was being defended by Hickey and that was a cluster frick.


I love Hickey & Stringer, but, against taller guards, their height is definitely a liability.

If we somehow pull up the next 2 I think pmac would be filled for ole miss. Which would be u.unthinkable when you think how bad it looked on there early

Mizzou is going to be a huge game for both teams. They are very much on the NCAA bubble and a loss to LSU is NOT going to help their chances at all.

Conversely, LSU could make a BIG statement by winning in Columbia (something that no one else has been able to do this year, and that very few teams have done over the last several years).

Absent last night's awful 2nd half performance, LSU has been better on offense. They've been consistently getting two guys "going" each time out, but have somewhat struggled to get a third. Hopefuly Camouche can stay hot, JOB can bounce back, and the idea of playing Pressey again can get Hickey fired-up like he was in BR where they had that great one-on-one second half battle.

Hickey sure needed to slow down his engine just a touch last night.
A few to many times especially in the second half he just looked out of control.

Mouche stepping up is huge. But, JOB has to stay under control and most importantly stay out of foul trouble.

It's been a lot of fun watching this team grow throughout this season.

Huge, huge win. Looks like we will exceed my top end expectations for the team this year of 8-10 SEC. We have really picked it up since those first 4 stinkers in SEC play.

Also, the last picture of the Arkansas fan with the bluetooth and the cops standing next to him is priceless

Pretty impressed with my predictions. I guessed 8-10 with 7-11 being the bottom and 10-8 being the top. Looks like we will be in my range for sure. Hopefully near the top of it.

I sit right above there. The guy was a huge douche the whole game. I couldn't hear the exchange, but the older guy in white behind him must have had enough and told the guy to shut his mouth. They ended up standing face to face, before the Arkansas guy shoved the older man back down into his seat. Several LSU fans let the guy have it before the cops intervened.... He continued to be a douche the rest of the game.

Yea I saw all the cops and snapped a picture. Looked like people weren't very happy.



And it blows my mind how high the ball is at release with ADP's hook shot. Way above the rim.

I don't want to see a bunch of fights or anything, but it seemed like the fans had a lot more passion/rowdy behavior than I've seen in a while. Hope the interest continues to grow. We have a chance for a really nice crowd at the Ole Miss game.

I am in the second level one section to the left. Didn't see the fracas until after the shove. However, Bluetooth-sooey was walking up stadium drive after the game. He had made it past the road gate almost to highland and was looking around trying to figure out where his car was. Wonder if he got towed?
