Win some games, try to get your feet on the ground by learning some fundamentals, and at the end of the season, actually being considered.
For this year, this schedule is exactly what this team needs

Also, last night we were short two players, if it means anything.

garret green and dennis harris. both 6'10. green is more like an okur type player. harris is a thin guy like CJ.

Our SOS won't be great but we've already played at least POSSIBLE tourney teams in JAckson State and Cal State-Fullerton and had no trouble beating either. We do have 4 OOC games that will tell us a lot (@ Utah, A & M in Houston, Wazzu and X) and we should pickup a lot of SEC wins reguardless of how we do against those 4 OOC. NCAA tourney bid is looking REALLY good right now.

I do worry how they will react it being their first game away from BR. If it's like the last time LSU played in the Toyota Center, it will be pretty neutral. Also, it will be the biggest crowd some of these younger players have ever played in front of.

I didn't see Storm or Graham either...

Someone has to win games in the SEC west. LSU looks to have the most talent in the division

Alabama hasn't impressed so far and they should be LSU's main competitor. IF LSU stays healthy, they could possibly win 9-10 SEC games. Having said that, I'll hold off on any serious predictions until early Jan for obvious reasons.

This year is reminding me of the year we started 13-0 and our only descent win in that stretch was OSU in the Arena..but the confidence the team/fan base had led to a really good year

On a team like this, everyone has a role. You say we played sloppy, maybe they were a bit more tired without some capable subs to go in for a few minutes. Every little bit helps. Sure, Graham, Green, and Harris don't see the floor often...but as subs, they have a job even if it's only for 2 or 3 minutes a game.

Im looking forward to going to the A & M game here in Houston...wish they would do this every year...
Posted on 12/3/08 at 10:29 pm to TexasTiger08
I think Storm played 1 minute

Have you seen the SEC? Dude, this team is fairly good looking and the SEC as a whole sucks this year.
