I was watching it on TV, but it looked like a great atmosphere. It was the much better than I expected. Was the TV giving us a false sense of the atmosphere?


Pretty much. There were at least 3000 empty seats. The game got louder as it got to the end of the game. The run to take the lead from the 15 deficit got pretty loud - like feeding frenzy loud.

I have tickets to both men’s and women’s games. The Women’s fan base was rebuilt last year with the run to the championship. It also helps that Kim is from nearby and has a lot of built in support in family so she got a step up to start.

The men’s program is a different beast. Our men’s fans are more fickle. We had a terrible season lasr year and many people tuned out and dropped out. The first half of this season didn’t give people much to hang onto either. But this team is getting better as the season goes on. I think they turned a corner this week. I only hope they don’t do the typical LSU basketball thing and have a full house on Saturday because of the last two games and then lay an egg against State. The fans who were there last night were loud when the team needed the energy. I can’t wait until the PMAC is fully awake again.
