Embarrassing. Do better Mulkey. Looked like one of her struggle turds vs South Carolina. Finding ways to lose.


They need a PG who can initiate an offense. We have a bunch of off guards trying to make stuff happen because Poa and SDW are useless

Loss does not really matter...we were NEVER going to get a 1 seed anyway ! Free throws will be what takes us out of the tournament, that and bone-headed plays

I really wish we’d have gotten Richard on the court much more earlier this season. I understand not playing her much here but get her more reps Jesus

I’m trolling the boards. They have Texas this home game because we are the only team that draws South Carolina twice. It’s not that difficult to surmise.

LSU just got outplayed in the last quarter. Plus it is had to beat a team that goes 21/21 in FT. Plain and simple. They should still have won though.

Well guys, I’m not a prophet but I just didn’t figure we were going to be able to do quite enough to win this game. We have some holes when you consider the goal is a national championship.

We are definitely a top eight team but will really have to pull it together to be a top four team.

Sweet Sixteen? Definitely there.

Elite Eight? I think we have a slightly better than even chance to get there.

Final Four and beyond? Gonna be a big uphill climb.

That’s a bad loss. Should have won that. They’re good but LSU should win that game. Blew it.

So? LSU has travel to South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Kentucky.

And Texas baseball should be coming to Alex Box Stadium, not LSU traveling to them.

And y'all still haven't returned our home football game after Joe Burrown and company slapped y'all down in 2019.

Y'all can blame the refs all you want. This offensive gameplan was horrendous. Trying to play 2 on 5 on offense is a losing strategy. We made 3 shots in the 4th quarter. We had more turnovers than field goals made in the 4th.

The depth in the post is the biggest issue. Del Rosario regressed from being a project and is unplayable.


Did you notice? ADR dwarfs their bigs. It’s fricking infuriating how useless she is and what she could be.

SDW really killed the momentum at the end of the 3rd quarter with the last two boneheaded possessions. Should’ve been up 5pts at a minimum going into the 4th.

Hard to beat elite teams when you have only have 3 players that can score the ball , Gilbert has her moments and that’s about it .

Depth not good enough to beat TX, SC, UConn, UCLA. Got next to nothing out of Poa, Gilbert, Del Rosario, Wolfenbarger, Day-Wilson, Sheppard. No scoring from Smith, was solid defensively and rebounding. Kim's offense has to have a PG who can attack and distribute. We haven't had that in 2 years and still don't have it now.

When Flaujae and Mikaylah can get out in transition, we can score it. When Morrow is getting offensive rebounds, we can score. In the 4th when Texas took away both of those things by making shots themselves and out-rebounding us, the offense went to shite.

You're forewarned now to not watch the Fighting TorinaMA's in their upcoming game against the Longhorn softball team!

seemed to me like Poa brought a physical edge to the team that was needed to deal with Texas. Not sure this game is close without her coming in and showing some fight.

And he was wrong. Don't overrule the other official unless you are 1000% sure

Take a look at the first Longhorn SEC schedules in football, men's and women's basketball, and baseball. Overall, the SEC really gave them favorable schedules to start their SEC membership.

Football was just ridiculous.

Looking at the other sports I mentioned - very favorable also - just a few tough road games.
M Basketball: Home: Auburn, Tennessee, Alabama, Kentucky
Away: Florida, Ole Miss

Baseball: Home: LSU, Texas AM, Florida, Georgia, Auburn
Away: Kentucky, Arkansas, Miss St, Mizzou, Okla

Women's sports are a bit more balanced, but still favorable overall.
W. Basketball - They had to play at USC but they also got them at home. Kentucky is better than usual and they had to go to Lexington.
Got LSU and Tennessee at home

Softball (Their toughest schedule):
Home: Auburn, Tennessee, LSU, Kentucky
Away: Florida, Miss st, Missouri, Oklahoma


Unlike Oklahoma...
