um, the jonestown cult has been all over the bball threads telling everyone to calm down, relax, there's plenty of time, lsu controls their own destiny, etc, and that if you say anything different you're a miserable petulant hater.

This is absolutely a must win game if we have tourney hopes. We are already a bumble team with a 1/3 of the season down and can only handle a max of 4-5 losses in conference play. Lose this one and another 1-2 then we are playing for NIT. More than that then another typical hoops team. This team has shown no signs of heart let along the capability to get on a winning streak. So yea, must win. These are facts and no pumping or nega-ting (new word)..

Oh yea, has it been mentioned Bama is celebrating the fball championship at our game. Trophy being given to team, etc.. WIll be a brutal environment and we all have seen how well our 'stars' handle road adversity..

TAMU was expected to be a loss. Alabama is not, so it is a must win.

We do control our own destiny. If we lose to Bama, then win the rest of our games, we will be in the tournament. It doesn't matter how likely. We would still have control over where we end up.

lsu has played 18 and only has 13 left. that's a lot more than a third complete. that's more like 2/3 complete.

in 2010, ms state had 23 wins and didn't make the tourney. it might be a stretch to say lsu controls their destiny

Under his scenario, we'd literally be guaranteed a spot

you might be right. you might be wrong. i'm sure state thought they were in with 23 wins. literally might be a strong word. control might be a strong word. nevermind that the scenario is unlikely.

So if LSU loses to Bama and wins the rest of their games until the NCAA tourney, we wouldn't be guaranteed a spot
