I'd say there's a chance - I don't think we're as overmatched as we were last year - but it's a small chance.

Cook has to play efficiently which he has not of late, cut down on the turnovers and just play smarter.

Hopefully Ward plays.

A good game from Wright will be key as well.

And as it's apparent CMM is riding with Baker, he'll have to find a way to play more efficiently and effectively as well.

So lot's of ifs.

Our chances are slim and none. Only thing we can hope for is that Bama still has an emotional hangover from beating Auburn.

Wright has to be on fire the whole game - possible

Ward has to produce higher than normal - not likely

Our 2 white breads have to play really big and give us points and offensive rebounds - maybe, but not likely

Cook has to make closer to +40% with 3's - maybe he got laid and is happy

My guess is a 15 point LSU loss. We're an old team and we should always be somewhat competitive but against better talent and better coaching...it's a LOSS, bad one likely

We’ve got to limit 2nd chance opportunities.


Alabama's offense is designed outside / in. Nate Oates designs it for them to jack up three point shots from any place at any time on the premise they will make enough to offset the normal distribution of shots by the opponents even if they shoot fairly well. The key will be for the Tigers to hold them under 35% from long range and be prepared for long rebounds. Hopefully they won't have the bad luck they had against Texas A & M which happens sometimes on missed three point shots. If they can limit second chance shots it could be another down to the end game.

Depends on how well we guard the perimeter and rebound.

Considering those are two big weaknesses of this team I’d say our chances are slim.

Zero. If the game is close, the SEC will see to it Bama wins.


Such a sad attitude. Why are you watching and why should they even show up to the game?

I've been a Tiger fan since 1977. I estimate we've played at Coleman coliseum 45 times over that span. I would guess we are 8-37 in those games. If anybody cares to research that, I wonder how close I am.

Bama coming off of an emotional big upset at home against Auburn last week has LSU looking good today I feel.

Slim and none. Ward had a knee tweak last game, should play tonight. Bama between 12-15.
