To be fair, LSU didn’t deserve much praise during most of the 2nd half. They played like complete shite for a while.

With that said, Kennedy was sucking off LSU when they were playing championship level ball. In fact he said when Waters is balling out, LSU is elite and can beat any team in the country. Pure hate

I agree with cargeaux, they were all about LSU till Hudson went off, hell I was even impressed with that dude when he got hot, you score 30+ points in one half is pretty impressive

You've got to be kidding me. Kennedy was gushing all over Waters, Naz, & Bigby the entire game and was constantly giving Wade pats on the back. This was actually a very fairly broadcasted game.

You are 100% correct they missed the goaltending call. The Kentucky player had his arm through the basket which by rule is goaltending. They totally blew that call and fortunately we were there with the tip in for the win.

Agreed. And Karl Ravech doesn't give a shite about basketball. AK and Pat Bradley have been gushing over LSU the whole season. Pat Bradley loses his shite every team he talks about us.

The last few games have been on the opposing teams senior night. Of course they are going to talk up the home team a little bit more.

Seriously frick these guys. An elbow to the mouth was a "good no call"?! WTF? Not to mention talking up UF all damned night and dismissing LSU.
. That is their job. To talk up the upset. Try to keep viewers.

A psychologist could make good money off the inferiority complexes displayed by LSU fans

2 seed in the SEC and 3 in the NCAA is the worst we can be and we would have to lose to Vandy and first SEC tournament game for that to happen. We win Saturday, 1 seed in SEC and I believe we win our fist SEC tournament game and we will be a 2 seed in the NCAA and would be ahead of the loser of KY and TN if they were to face each other in the SEC tournament semis. There are multiple teams in front of us that are in the same conference, we would be ahead of the team that loses to the other in their conference tournament. Without Zion, Duke probably loses saturday and probably early in conference tournament, which would push them behind us.

Wrong. Kennedy loves LSU and Wade.



Did you by chance watch the Miss St game ? Kennedy didn't have 3 positive things to say about LSU all night. Anything LSU accomplished was lessened , and both announcers pretty much fawned over Miss St. frick Kennedy & his coheart.

I agree, actually. And said as much in my post. Bigby-Williams then tipped the ball while it was still in the cylinder. Game should've already been over with THEIR goaltending, but if you're saying KBW didn't also commit a violation, you're nuts.

I agree the refs sucked in SEVERAL instances this year. Not saying we shouldn't have won at KY or last night. The refs were horrendous in KYs favor that night, AND in UFs last night.

I disagree OP. I've been watching ESPN's coverage of LSU all year, and in my opinion they are gushing over us. We are the darlings of the top 25.

The only one who clearly didn't buy or pay attention to us well was Dick Vitale.

If you are referring to last night, he was hit by the FL guard's left elbow going up for a lay-up. Elbow not extended or in any way looked to be intentional...yes, I believe many calls were not, particularly against our big men with FL driving, but not the one you are apparently referencing.

All in all, the refs did poor job. Don't know the rules for looking at replays for basketball, but they looked at 2 for FL toward the end and missed one that they didn't look at for LSU...so there's that.
