the right group for Dale was a bunch of underachievers



1981 called and said wut???


1981 Final Four team was the best LSU TEAM in our history. If Rudy hadn't injured that finger I still beleieve they would have won it all.


So no, it was underachivers that Dale needed to win, it was just the right amount of stars and gritty players. Kind of like every team in every sport. It's not easy to win.

On the 31 pt comeback vs UK, ya know the funniest thing I took from all of that was Brown's quote of "how in the world did we get up by 31?"...which was true. The end was already near, BBall had lost traction and that team was not good. And it was a great UK team

Well said. The 1980 team was probably the second best team after Louisville. For some reason message board posters on LSU forums enjoy trying to minimize and trivialize what Dale accomplished. No fanbase eats its own more than LSU fans.
