If I remember right, in 87 Fess Irvin misses either 2 FTs or front end of 1&1 at the end. We should’ve been in back to back Final 4s. Was in New Orleans too in 87.


You remember correctly Caddo, but I feel bad Fess gets the blame. He actually played maybe his best game for LSU that day, scored 14 points and 2-3 from three point land.

That one was on Dale, we're up 9 and they absolutely can't stop Nikita Wilson, they have no answer for him.


But Dale goes four corners and stops getting Nikita the ball. Kudos for getting up 9 on a more talented team but Dale shite the bed with his end game strategy. Fess was a symptom of a bad decision by Dale, he doesn't deserve the footnote he gets, IMHO.

I didn’t miss a home game and only missed a few one the road. Man, we had that game and like you said Dale froze it. Sucked. Man, those times were fun. From ‘79-‘92 there were some incredible athletes and teams.

‘86 was my favorite though.

The one that had the best shot was the ‘80-‘81 Team until Rudy got hurt in NO.
