No games tonight but all teams are in action tomorrow.
LSU (1-8) hosts Texas A&M (3-6) at the PMAC tomorrow. LSU has lost eight straight games and had a real tough time with the Aggies in College Station earlier this season. Hopefully the Tigers have a better showing this time around.
Tulane (1-9) travels to take on East Carolina (2-8). Tulane has lost six straight games but ECU might be a winnable game for the Wave.
Louisiana Tech (7-3) stays at home to match up with Marshall (6-4). The Bulldogs look to make it two in a row and remain in at least a tie for second place in CUSA.
ULL (4-5) heads east to take on Georgia State (7-2). Cajuns can really help themselves out on this road trip as they face both Georgia schools who are both currently tied for first place in the Sun Belt. ULL looks for a better effort than when they were beat soundly at home by the Panthers earlier this season.
ULM (1-8) will also be in the Peach State as they take on Georgia Southern (7-2). ULM got their first conference win last game and would love to make it two in a row by pulling off an upset here.
Northwestern St (3-6) hosts Stephen F. Austin (6-4). The Demons look to snap a two game skid and get things going back in the right direction.
Southeastern (6-4) heads north the face Central Arkansas (4-6). Southeastern looks to string together wins and hold on to their third place spot in conference.
McNeese (4-6) makes the short trip from Lake Charles to Beaumont to take on Lamar (5-4). It will be interesting to see if the Cowboys can build on the momentum from their win last time out.
UNO (7-3) welcomes Nicholls (4-6) for one of two in state match ups this weekend. UNO looks to snap a two game losing skid, while Nicholls tries for a big win over a currently top two team in the Southland.
In the other in state match up we have Southern (5-4) squaring off with Grambling (5-4) in Baton Rouge. This should be a good one as both teams are tied for third in the SWAC. SU beat the Tigers in Grambling a month ago 87-79, but Grambling comes into this one winner of their last three games while the Jags have lost their previous two games.

Tonight there are two teams in action.
Tulane (1-10) travels to take on Houston (7-4). This is a rematch of game from two weeks ago in New Orleans which Houston won 65-51. Tulane has lost seven straight coming into this game and looks to find a way to get back in the win column.

It's kind of surprising. I mean I didn't expect them to be great or anything, but 4-20 is rough.

The only way for Louisiana to be represented in the post season will be for someone to win a Conference tournament?
Posted on 2/13/17 at 1:05 pm to sms151t
Correct
I think UL-L has a shot to win the SBC tournament.
LaTech has a tough draw this year - the CUSA tournament is in Birmingham again - That is criminal and gives UAB a huge advantage
UNO maybe???

Postseason, as in NCAA's? Yes.
If you include NIT, regular season champions are guaranteed NIT bids. UNO could win the SLC regular season and lose in the conference tourney but still go to the NIT.
