Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns representing our great state for March Madness! Can they pull the upset?

Tennessee has a great defense so should be a low scoring affair. Vols will double Jordan Brown and the Cajuns will have to knock down the 3’s. Should be a good one.

Geaux Cajuns!

Cajuns can pull it off, but it'll take a solid performance.

Rough draw for Tennessee

Louisiana, a hot Duke team potentially while still on Purdue’s side of the bracket

TN has not played well since losing their PG. Losing a PG this late in the season is like losing your starting QB. So, UL-L or any fairly solid team could take them now.

Rick Barnes is not the guy I want leading my team in March (he's great from Nov - Feb). But Tennessee is the 2nd best defensive team in the country. Defense wins in March. Just not a good matchup for ULL I'm afraid

UL is winning this game.


Not a homer pick, a smart pick

I don’t think so. They don’t double anybody. They’ll dig occasionally on guys if they’re having success but I think they will make Brown beat them.

Obviously he’s a very good player but I haven’t seen them double a big since Domantis Sanonis in Barnes’s second year when Tennessee was playing a 6’8 guy at center.

Common opponent: Texas

Tennessee won by 11

Cajuns lost by 28


Haven't watched much UL basketball as you don't see much Sunbelt basketball on the TV schedule but I noticed in the SB championship game that they were struggling to get in the paint consistently against South AL. Probably not a good sign of things to come.

Efficient offense wins in March. You need to score to win.

It's a bad matchup for UL. Tennessee takes this as Tennessee is going to limit UL's ability to play around the rim.

That is the coach LSU needs to hire after this tournament.
