North Texas fought back from a 10-point halftime deficit but lost to St. Johsn to go to 2-1. Two teams coming off of tough losses go at it in a brunch battle tomorrow!



Just expect losses from here on out and not be disappointed when it happens. Because its expected now. Zero faith in our men's basketball program.

Only a -2.5 favorite this morning North Texas by 15. I’ll be there, sadly.

That’s the concern. They shot it very well and still lost because of terrible 3 point defense and rebounding. Those were big issues last year. They were reasons for concern going into this season. Those preseason concerns have quickly become reality.

No team is going to shoot it well every night. But teams that rebound and defend always give themselves a chance. I just don’t know if this team can do that

Turning the page. A win today likely sets up a matchup with Wake Forest. Which seems right, because it wouldn’t be an LSU basketball season without a game vs Wake

I thought that line was fishy, but north texas has been good the last few years. And the line is right on according to kenpom

Two contrasting styles: LSU's defense isn't very good and North Texas's offense isn't very good.

We were getting outrebounded and out physicalled by an NAIA school (LCU) in the scrimmage. Our leading rebounder that game got a redshirt.

The writing has been on the wall.

Was thinking about this last night. LSU's one true basketball rival Wake forest! (Isn't this where Efton Reid ended up?)


Just need to win the Johnny Jones bowl at brunch

A loss today sets the Tigers likely head-on into Towson. Don't remember LSU-Towson ever in a basketball game, but LSU football got a scare from Towson back in 2012.

North Texas won the 2023 NIT. They're a solid team, maybe as good, or better than Dayton

Just accept it. So far he’s been atrocious at LSU.
