re: WBB Tournament Round 1: LSU 70, Rice 60 - Final...Sloppy but effective

The wall is coming for this team. Tired legs and minds. No depth. Just glad it's Rice today, but it's coming

Probably. It's exhausting trying to defend a title even at full strength. Both mentally and physically. Doing it with a 6-7 man rotation would be almost. But S was right (maybe in another thread), sometimes the 1st game is the hardest. Now that it's behind them, maybe they can go on a little run and get a little lucky with matchups like last year.

It's the no depth part that will be our undoing. No excuse for being physically tired. We've had two weeks off. There does seem to be a lack of focus. Maybe it's because there's been so much negative publicity about LSU since the USCe game. Supposedly there is yet another hit piece on Kim coming out soon. With all that this team has endured, if we win on Sunday and make it to the elite 8, I'd consider it a very successful season.
