the team was playing hard today and got hosed on some ridiculous calls. We still have a lot of work to do but it could've been a different result if the refs didn't suck peen

This is a theme with MM teams even going back to last year: they suck in the first half and the game seems over by halftime against any team with a pulse.

I would love to sit here and say "hey we showed some fight in the 2nd half, maybe we can carry that momentum into our upcoming games". But we have a pattern of not starting games off well and more often than not being too much to overcome in the 2nd half. I don't see why I should expect different going forward. Especially once SEC play starts.

Would love to be proven wrong. A phrase I feel like I've said way too many times regarding MM in his short tenure. I want us to do well. I want LSU basketball to succeed, no matter who the coach is. If MM turned it all around and starting winning these games I would be ecstatic. I would love nothing better than to see that happen. But the realist in me just doesn't see signs of that happening.
