How much does having its two best players out hurt the tigers.

Reed and Thomas.

It’s absolutely killing this team.

However, the rest of the team doesn’t seem to be trying to make up for their absence.

All I see when I watch them is a glaring lack of intensity.

It’s like we play neutered. Nobody tries to create or just rely on their basketball instinct

I was willing to give them a pass until they choked away the game at A&M.

You just proved you were capable of competing without them. This is indefensible

Doesn't help but this team wasn't going to win anything regardless. 12-1 and unranked tells you all you need to know about who they've been beating and how the voters see them.

I can get on board with us scoring less without Thomas. I can’t get on board with Thomas being out makes us give up 50 in the first half

Reed isn’t our 2nd best player….not our best player either. His loss hurts our depth. It was a big loss, but don’t lie about his place in the pecking order on this team.

It’s a new year and players do develop and find their game all the time. Combine that with his talent and skill he might’ve had an outstanding year.

So that’s just like your opinion, man

These are the type of logic and reasoning bad teams make.

Not down 25 at half at home hurt that’s for sure.

Let’s talk about hypotheticals like they are fact.

FFS, the whole conversation is a hypothetical. It’s called a conversation.

Let that happen to any team, and it will clearly not be the same team.
LSU is no different
