For some reason watching basketball games makes me really nervous.

Not sure what it is about basketball. I can watch nail biter football games, baseball games, etc. But basketball I find hard to watch sometimes. Maybe because it's such a game of runs, I don't know.

Anybody else get that?

It's hard to watch. The PMAC is quiet. And every other play is a foul

Yep. In baseball and football, you can control virtually every outcome. You can pitch shutouts and dominate. In basketball, so many more intangibles, ebbs and flows, make a smooth, dominating win tougher, leading to a greater range of emotion.

I think track and field is the comparison your were looking for, not football.

Watching us play defense makes me want to cry.

Considering we could win or lose every game we play and we're most likely not going to the NCAA Tournament, just relax.

Have you ever heard of a coach with the best player in the conference not posting him up when you get in the bonus @ the 15 min mark?

How many free throws did Ben shoot? He needs to nut up

Because we play so poorly for the amount of talent, it's hard to watch

So Johnny jones had to go to half time to tell Simmons to man up? Could have done that at 11 min mark

I want LSU to win. I expect LSU to lose. That's how I deal with it.
