Too bad the cartel called in the victory for Bama. At least we scored high.



Yeah it was like a little twitch or off balance here and there for LSU was a 9.77 but it was 9.92 for Bama. Some less than clean landings for Bama were getting 9.9+ while LSU was getting docked.

A lot of my friends are like this too. They grunt when I talk about basketball or baseball, but they piss their God damn pants over gymnastics. It really is extremely pathetic.

I'd have loved to go watch cute coeds willingly contort themselves into awesome positions back in my day.

Never been to a gymnastics meet, probably never will.

Our basketball team is pretty good and they have a lot of heart and hustle. Don't minimize them!

Apparently, SEC officiating bias towards Bama extends to gymnastics

Chosing to watch girls in tight spandex flipping and bending over watching tall black men running up and down the court doesn't seem gay to me, unless you're a woman.

something I saw recently, only 4 schools have won the national championship in the last 30 or so years. Not saying it is completely rigged, but bias has to be a factor given how close scores are. They should require each gymnast to wear a generic uniform, go in drawn order with nothing to identify them. Announce the results at the end of the meet.

I think if they'd come down on those ticket prices a hair they'd get better attendance. $22 dollars just seems high to me.

Here is the answer. this is what i paid 2 weeks ago for the STate game. just too much for upper level seats. they should be about 15 tops. and the concessions aren't that cheap.

i have FB season tickets, so that money is to be paid now.

Yeah every time I see the rankings it's the same Top 4 or 5 every year with LSU usually close behind. Last nightwas their 8th highest score in school history and best since 2008 and they still lost by .250

Only thing more sad is the people that voluntarily choose to attend a gymnastics meet.
I hope it was at least free.

soph Lloimincia Hall is an absolute firecracker with one of the best crowd pleasing routines of the season. She got a 10 (first LSU gymnast to do so since 2008) and rocked the house.

Here's her routine in done in Tuscaloosa earlier this year, but it's not hard to imagine it in Baton Rouge since the ALABAMA CROWD gave her an ovation at the end. (seriously, normally we don't give the opposing team any applause).

Lighten up, dude.

Gymnastics has earned their following and basketball hasn't.

To this point, LSU is a mediocre basketball team.

Deal with it and stop crying like a spoiled two year old.

College Ladies' Gymnastics SHOULD be getting good crowds to watch the events. I love watching those beautiful athletes compete. They are fearless and tough, which are two qualities that I greatly admire.

The women's soccer team is also worth going to see. Before I moved to Atlanta I made it to every home game for the previous 4 years. They are quite competitive.

We need to get her on the football field. Those thighs must be 30" a piece.
