IIRC, we were #1 going into the 1990 season- and lost the opener to Southern Miss.


actually, LSU came out #2 and beat Southern Miss in the opener of the pre-season NIT, but lost to unranked Kansas the very next nite at the PMAC. Kansas then beat #1 UNLV a day or two later.

I could've sworn LSU was pre-season #1 that year, at least that's the way I chose to remember it. There was huge hype for the "twin towers" and I remember Roberts being a bigger recruit than Shaq if I'm not mistaken. CJ had probably the greatest freshman year in college basketball, evah! It was justifiable to believe the hype. I haven't been as excited about LSU basketball since.
