2/28 against Ole Miss
3/4 against Tennessee

Let's make a concerted effort across the fan base to fill the place up to the brim and get loud. If we beat Auburn and can win these 2 games it should be enough to make the tournament. Keith Hornsby was practically begging the fans to stay with them for these last 4 games. If we can do it for gymnastics which is great we can do it for basketball. This team is frustrating but they're on the cusp of making it back to the dance. With just a little help we can push them over the edge.

Flame away

If we beat auburn expect a solid crowd for ole miss. If we lose expect a meh crowd. They have to stop losing to sucky teams to get good crowds consistently.

when he plays like he did today this team can be as good as they want to be. would still like to see him attack the rim more. we start to get sloppy when we knock down a couple J's and every wing wants a piece of the pie. M and M need to touch it at least once every trip in the half court (and FFS patterson no pullup Js in transition)

I'll be there win or lose to Panther, but many will be contingent upon beating Auburn. And I understand that. Shitting the bed against some of these teams is maddening.

I was told that I just need to be happy about winning as we did today. I'm trying...I really am.

Geaux Tigers!! Beat Auburn.

What's burned in my mind is we could not stop them the first game. They scored 81 points on us and we made their offense look like the San Antonio Spurs of last year.

Please just come with some intensity and urgency. This game call for it big time.

The ball is in the teams court. Go out and take care of business against teams like the barn and state and the crowds will come. This team has the chance to be extremely good, the problem is they don't show up all the time. When you have a team that can't give consistent effort then its going to suffer in attendance.

As frustrating as it was, if LSU plays that exact same game again they win by at least 7. AU (especially Harrel and Mason) hit a ton of contested jumpers. It wasn't LSU's best defensive game, but they were there on several occasions.

Should they beat AU, hell even if they don't, the Ole Miss game will be the most important home game of the year. With LSU and OM both on the bubble a sweep of the Rebels would be huge. It would be another win over a top 50 team.

The NCAA recently did a "mock selection Sunday" last weekend. Lots of differing opinions about what makes a tournament team, but one committee member said that he's more concerned with who you can beat rather than who can beat you. A win over OM certainly bodes well for LSU in that regard

I think we match up well with OM, but they are a good road team. Maybe would have beaten KY in Lexington had Moody not cramped up and crushed Arkansas on the road.

But I think if we show up with intensity and purpose we beat them.

OM is a good team because of their experienced guards. LSU won the first game because our guards (especially on defense) were much better that night. Hornsby scored 20+ and Gray had his best SEC game of the season (10 assists). LSU's guards will have to show up again
