Need McKinnon to find his stroke. Has missed 3 wide open shots.

I'll repeat Thomas has to stay healthy and out of foul trouble.

We are simply missing a ton from 3.

I like how Pirate downvoted this but Nebraska was literally projected 14/18 Big 10 teams.

Both statements were facts

I hate how this team doesn't box in to stop offensive rebounds. That's the weakest part of LSU basketball this year

I may have missed this in a previous thread, but what happened to the Israeli kid? Was it zipper?

Thats just PQ being PQ. They aren’t very good but they’re quick and playing aggressive, and their athleticism is bothering LSU.

I agree he looks slow. We will also get eaten alive on the boards if they don't improve.
Let's see how they respond after half.

I don't know about significantly better, but certainly better on Ken Pom for now. Net Rankings aren't out yet, and I don't think even the Ken Pom ratings are very accurate yet.

FIU - 209
UNO - 259
Tarleton - 260

ETA: LSU - 41

It is the SOS With a McMahon coached team,they don't rebound,turnovers,fouls,missed shots,they don't play defense,they don't play with there hair on fire every minute of every game! This is the SOS for the last 3 years his teams are lazy,they throw up 3 pt shots because they all think they are NBA players and when they do this he doesn't put a foot up there arse! We have seen this show before,for the last 3 years!

Reality, FIU outplayed LSU in that half, but LSU made up for it at the FT line.

To me this is what coaches call a lack of comcentration and focus, simply making silly mistakes like giving up almost 10 offensive rebounds and not boxing out. I’d hope Coach chews some arse out at halftime. The effort of defense and the boards is unacceptable. I can live with a bad shooting night, but not a bad effort night.

We haven’t boxed out all year. I agree.

Howell: “Looked good early but where did it go for the 4 or 5 minutes that let FIU back into the game?”

That’s exactly when Thomas was on the bench. Reece was overmatched.
