Thanks. Had copied the format from the Tulane post and forgot to change that part evidently.

Not a bad Monday as state schools went 3-3 last night.

Tulane beat Southeastern 89-66. Tulane was led by Melvin Frazier who had 25 points and 10 rebounds in the win. Marlain Veal had 26 for Southeastern but he was the only Lion in double figures. Tulane is now 2-0 and SLU is now 1-1.

Louisiana Tech had to go to overtime, but they held on to beat SEMO 96-95. The Bulldogs were led by Jalen Harris who had 26 points. Daquan Bracey also scored 20 points in the game. LA Tech is now 2-0.

UNO stayed on the road and fell to Oakland 68-87. The Privateers got a 20 point effort from Travin Thibodeaux and 18 points from Makur Puou but it wasn't enought. UNO is now 0-2.

McNeese got their first win of the season last night beating Ecclesia College 101-54. The Cowboys improve to 1-1 and were led by Kalob Ledoux who had 20 points.

Southern was also on the road and they fell to Marshall 74-83. The Jags got good performances from Jared Sam who had 21 points & 7 rebounds and Eddie Reese who dropped 18/5/5. The Jags are now 0-2.

Tonight there are two games with state schools. ULL hosts LA College and Nicholls travels to face Villanova.

Team records are updated in OP.

ULL beat LA College 113-58. PJ Hardy led the Cajuns with 19 points. The Cajuns improve to 1-1 on the season.

Nicholls lost to Villanova 77-113. The Colonels got a 25 point effort out of guard Zaquavian Smith but it wasn't enough. Nicholls drops to 1-1 this year.


There are two games involving state schools tonight. Northwestern State heads to SMU and Southern is on the road as well against Missouri State.

Not a bad night of basketball as in state teams went 2-2.

LSU took care of business against Samford winning 105-86. Tigers got 20 point efforts out of Skyler Mays and Brandon Sampson, who also had 8 rebounds and 7 assists. Five Tigers in all reached double digits in scoring. LSU is now 2-0 this season.

ULM defeated Southeastern in Monroe by a score of 86-75. Warhawks got 19 point outings from both Travis Munnings and Marvin Jean-Pierre. The Lions got 23 points off the bench from Eddy Polanco and 15 point, 10 rebound effort from Keith Charleston but it wasn't enough. ULM is now 1-2 this season and SLU is 1-2 as well.

Grambling lost at Iowa 74-85. The Tigers had a respectable road effort against a Power 5 school. They got 21 points from Axel Mpoyo to lead all scorers for the Tigers. Grambling is now 0-2 this year.

That link should work come game time.

There is a stream for every home game this year, at least I'm told.

Tech has a game this weekend too.

I think Montana State gives LaTech some problems this Saturday.
