During the broadcast, Jimmy Dykes was mentioning that LSU in that game wasn't getting defensive rebounds. I pulled up the ESPN app and checked the stats, and we were literally outrebounding Arkansas and we had more drebs than they did. Bit of a headscratcher. I do think that we have a lot of room for improvement, still, but the narrative hasn't matched the facts for the past few games at least. The key to us succeeding in rebounding seems to be the level of activity we get from Days and Watford. If those guys are on, we're getting boards. If they're slacking or having foul issues, our rebounding suffers noticeably.

I agree with you on Days and Watford. Days has to stay out of foul trouble and not float beyond the 3 point line too much bevause he’s an outstanding college rebounder. Watford just has to be aggressive about it. When he’s patient like the last 2 games and doesn’t wanna takeoff down the floor he really helps on the defensive boards. We laughed at Dykes whiteboard breakdown of Watford last night. They took an entire segment for him to just point out where Watford lines up at and draw a squiggly line towards the goal lol. Zero relevant information was disseminated in that segment.
