I pretty much agree with the comments. Love the "Weak Florist" line!

That was nice. For some reason, it's nice to hear that level of respect from a traditional basketball power.

We're not quite on their level yet, but we're headed in the right direction.

They seem more complimentary of us than some of our own fans. They are right on target saying that we got screwed being such a low seed. This team proved in my opinion that they deserved a better shot at getting to the sweet 16.

Because of what you just read??? They were very complimentary and classy. I think I may have to pull for them to win it all now. I do like Hansborough and I think Williams is a class act, the Lester Earl saga notwithstanding.

This was a much better team than history will remember. At least in regards to losing in the round of 32.

I agree, and that's a crying shame. This set of seniors, plus Taz certainly did us proud and deserve all the praise they get, if they get much from anybody besides us LSU fans and local media.

I watched the game with UNC fans and they said that LSU was a better team than they should have faced in the 2nd round...hence: should have been a higher seed!! good job Tigers..proud of ya!

The final score was so misleading, so it does feel good that we were given a lot of respect afterwards...

Yes, it sure was. I know on the scoreboard it was a 14pt win for NC, but for anyone that watched the game knows it was much closer than that. I can't even count how many lead changes there were. We just went on a 4 min. cold streak. If not for that, we have a shot to win at the end.

Wow.

I wonder if this is how opposing fan bases feel after playing LSU in football. While complimentary, it feels like being a USM or Troy type of program. Not a feeling I'm used to as an LSU fan.

This was one of my favorite quotes, however:
