Completely agree. And, with all the parody in College B Ball these days there are not those few "dominent" teams like in years past. Not much seperates #1 from #25 in my opinion. If you get on a roll at the right time, anything can happen.

They played great last night, lets wait and see if they can do it again this weekend.

We play well against teams that we match up well against. Teams (A&M, Utah) with big, physical guys give us trouble. We're lucky the SEC don't have many teams that are big and physical, so we compete well.

We're playing with lots of confidence and I'm curious to see how we match up with Xavier.

Even though UNC isn't number 1, they are a dominant team and will win it all.

All those tourny games won't be at the PMAC. I'm curious as to what happened with Utah? Regardless, Coach Trent is the best fundamental Coach LSU has had that I have seen. We could have a basketball team that makes noise for years to come. I just hope he can recruit.

We'll be good but teams with a couple big guys that can bang will beat us. Chris Johnson just got pushed around against A&M and Utah

they had a dude who was 7'2 who never missed and were shooting 70% from the field as a team with 3 minutes to go in the game.

We have one big win and now we are unstoppable.

And as soon as we lose (and we will), fans will be saying we won't even make the tourney.

Perspective, people.

can't say it enough in the college game if you play good defense and rebound you can play with anyone even on the nights where the hot guys go cold....

I have a feeling by March people are going to say "shite LSU is on our side of the bracket"

they are real good now...they will be scary good when Trent starts getting his guys in the door!

A nice win over Xavier would go a long way.
