At 8:55 left in the first half, lsu had a 91.1% chance to win up by 15 points at home against a 4-5 team.

They proceeded to be outscored 40-67 the remainder of the game and lose by 12 points. If youre keeping score at home, that’s just shy of double digits.

Where is the relentless group of mediocrity lovers to defend their coach, Matthew Joseph McMahon? Who is now 16-48 in the SEC as the head coach of lsu?

Don’t be shy guys:

Mcpuffs
The pirate king
tigersbb
Jim aka Mr. Q4
Jwill aka Mr. Villanova Offense
Lapaz
JohnnyU
LsuButt
McGrath
Shooter
* ETA: jamar. Borderline unforgivable oversight on my part.

Anybody home? Technically this game was very competitive in some way, right? How much more money does he need?

They're all waiting for our next lead 5 mins into the game to stick their heads out again.

I mean, that list in the OP didn't come out of thin air.

Had we won this game, they'd be making their threads proclaiming McMahon as the greatest 16-350 coach in the history of basketball.

Sorry, I assumed everyone already knew.

Mcpuffs, the leader of team mediocrity lovers, has previously defined double digits as “more than 13 points”.

Obviously Georgia came up a little short of that threshold this afternoon, thus just shy of double digits.

It’s basketball dude. Up 15 in the first half means absolutely nothing. Especially with LSU.

It's the epitome.

You are making his case.

13+ being the criteria for double digits is probably the most hilarious I've ever read on TD.

10 - no
14 - yes

well that's not true he asked:

implying McMahon defenders like me vanish after losses.

I am right here defending him. he tried his best

Yeah we just need a new coach. I'm not in that "it has to be Will Wade" camp, we just need some kind of change. There's something wrong at the top when we spend like this and can't beat Mississippi State and Georgia on down years (or even keep it competitive with Georgia)

I predicted 4-14 SEC record this year. Seems optimistic.

This is far below mediocre. Mediocre would be a nice change of pace.
