Re: When is the LSU Syracuse game scheduled for? boy i sure wish we could have a coach like boeheim that never would get upset by such a dog. i mean, cjb blew it against an 11 seed. no way syracuse would lose to that low a seed. oh they did? whats that? tonight wasnt the first time? there must be some misunderstanding.
Re: When is the LSU Syracuse game scheduled for? :hihi: Obviously some sarcasm directed to the Brady Bashers I see... Yes, actually Boehiem is a good coach... but only when 'Melo was there . But seriously, as I expected, Syracuse was coming in flat off of their Big East tourney win (note to hoopster novices, winning your conference tourney is NOT a good thing), but more true to form TEXAS A&M is a DECENT team. Billy Gillipsie IS a good fundamental coach, and quite honestly, if we went after a regional coach to replace Brady (prior to this year), I might have made a run at Billy G. They play good solid d, they've started to really play in the last half of the season, and have some athletic guys who can hurt you--including... yes, a good big man, and a couple of good guards. That being said, I would have still preferred to face TA&M than Syracuse, just because McNamara would have been a guy that could really hurt us and I would have been afraid of Brady being psyched out with Boehiem on the other bench. Expect a lower scoring affair, with a lot of good d being played. If we play like we did in the second half today, I do think we'll be in good shape, just because we have a very formidable front line if Thomas, Davis and Lazare are all active. And, I think Temple and Tas' will match up well against A&M guards. :geauxtige :bball: :champs: LSU IS A BASKETBALL SCHOOL.
Re: When is the LSU Syracuse game scheduled for? ehh my bad...I got the time off of espn where the times were eastern...4 50 is right.
Re: When is the LSU Syracuse game scheduled for? just checked out A&Ms stats on kenpom.com. no player stands out. but as a team several things do. #1 in nation in assists/fg---they pass and teams probably play a lot of zone against them. #5 adjusted defensive eff in the nation. #4 in creating turnovers (uhoh). their opponents shoot a lot of free throws--probably good considering how we've been shooting them. nothings gonna come easy for the guards, but GD may take over.
