Very impressed with LSU’s two big guys and two guards. They will be very competitive in SEC. We fortunately won’t see a team like this until NCAAs. Could still win this game but gotta step it up big time onboth ends.

I am proud of this team. We never quit on an off night. Regroup. Beat ETSU.
No joke. Most mid-major teams would play a team this athletic, have an off night, and lose by 30.

I think LSU is about 10 or 15 points off their season average in points.

I don’t understand how this team has lost 3 games! Incredibly athletic, guards don’t miss from anywhere on court. Jumped in front of several passes. Boarded over our guys all night.

And the Paladins still kept it close for most of game!

If we see a team this athletic in SoCon play, I'll be shocked.
Down by 14 with 1:22. Learn from this and turn our attention to the Conference Schedule.

Verrrry proud of the guys. Just sorry we won't be able to see that CBS-dork eat his words.

Scrappy effort but outmanned.

17 TO to 8 assists. Yikes.

Out rebounded badly.

29% on 3’s.
There's no question that we had a bunch of trouble with their big men. Rafferty fought like heck, but there's only so much you can do against a rotation of 6'11 guys that can jump out of the gym.

I highly recommend that no one search “Furman” on Twitter. It will make you furious. I hate internet trolls. A team that was 12-0 with 5 true road wins and victories over Villanova and Loyola is absolutely worthy of getting national praise. And I’m ok with us not being ranked anymore, but that previous resume was worthy of being in the last couple of ranked spots for a couple of weeks in December.

I watched the entire LSU-Houston game. LSU was up by 15 two minutes into the second half. After that they played terrible and Houston played great. Nobody for LSU was hitting from outside and Houston was better on the boards in the second half.

Would love to see some Jalen Williams tonight. The entire LSU fan thread completely overlooks him and claims we have no depth down low. It would be a nice surprise for them!
Welp, those 3 minutes (I’m guessing on that) for JW really paid dividends! Rafferty looked gassed.
