I guess your only familiar with soccer... Going over the back is a foul. Soccers a girl sport, but that's cool.

Yea. REFS hate LSU. I mean, that much is obvious. The fix was in.

Patterson on the bench for four of the last five minutes was the difference. Gray isn't ready. Now his confidence is shot.

Close but no cigar. Great effort though.

Jay Williams calling j jones out

Good game about what I expected...... Unfortunately this team played themselves into having to win this game to get into the tourney (barring a miraculous SEC tourney run).

Another NIT for JJ...... I still wonder if the NIT will define JJ's tenure at LSU.

Great effort by the team, but, as usual, absolutely no help from the coaching staff. Two crucial inbounds plays in the final minute, both completely useless.

With a minute left, down by 1, ball out of bounds, 5 seconds to shoot, our inbounds play is for three guys to stand still, Gray to pop out toward halfcourt, then drive to the basket and try to shoot over a 7-foot shotblocker.

Six seconds left, down by 2, ball out of bounds, our inbounds play is for Hornsby to pop out to the three point line and shoot an off-balance, contested three pointer.

No screens. No cuts. No movement by anyone except the designated person to catch the ball and drive/shoot. It's a shame such athletic talent is wasted on such an incompetent coaching staff.

Proud of our boys. They played well. Gave us a chance to win.

GARBAGE. Embarrassing way to end a good game. WHAT THE frick
