well that’s dumb. sportsbooks had our O/U on conference wins at 9.5 at the beginning of this season.

sounds like you should admit all your basketball takes will be wrong

Very selfish play tonight and MM said as much in his post game interview. Almost cost us the game and prevented this from being a 15+ point win. Defense made up for some of that. But sometimes they get so caught up in getting steals they overplay and give up easy baskets. But love the effort on both sides. They play hard and TO have also gone down.

Well, 9.5 is way too high even with Cook. We may get there, but to bet on it? No way. And I love the progress LSU is showing.

I’m not saying you’re wrong, but I would like to see that book? LSU was picked to finish second to last in the SEC. A 9-10 win team is far from second to last.

This is absolutely not true. That puts us at 9-9 or 10-8 in SEC, that's borderline NCAAT material after a 2-16 SEC record and a team that had 14 straight losses last season.

I'm really happy we're 2-0 baws, but seriously the chest pounding and lack of perspective is upsetting. Let's see what we can do moving forward. I'm not big into moral victories, but a decent showing against AU would be nice. They are kenpom top5.
