I agree...South of South predicts an SMU V by 5. That's enough for me. I would just like them to show up and make them earn it. Scare them a little by keeping it close and give the Tiger Fans in attendance something to cheer about.

Hopefully their motivation is lacking after missing the NCAA. It is sold out though. (Approx 7100 is capacity)

The committee "penalized" them for being in a weak conference and playing a poor OOC schedule. However, they deserved to be in the NCAAT.

They're led by one of the best coaches at any level over the last 30 years. LSU probably has the edge in personnel, but we'll see if Jones can put it together to get it done

Correct Josh. I'm not expecting victory honestly. We just have not figures out a way to hit on all cylinders with this team and we have not developed our bench players enough this year to help if foul trouble rears it's head or one of our first 7 are ineffective.

But one can always hope. If Martin, Mickey and JOB3 all play their A game in the same game, we certainly have a shot.

But how often has that happend this year?

Nevertheless, Geaux Tigers!

Harvard only beat Cincy by four this week. Always tough to play on an opponents home floor. Overcome or go home.

Fire Larry Brown! How could a team be good enough to get wins like that and not make the Big Dance? It must be bench coaching. He obviously has great talent. Well that's what happens when SMU hires an unknown, untested coach. So inconsistent, so up and down. Isn't it the coach's job to make sure they don't come out flat on the road? Just a little devil's advocacy there for all of our all knowing fans.

We have a distinct advantage in the coaching area. That will help us...
