Coming off a gritty win over Texas State on Thursday, the Louisiana men's basketball team looks for their sixth Sun Belt Conference win of the year as they host South Alabama on Saturday in the Cajundome.
This is a big one fellas!
Pack the Cajun Dome!

Good day so far, TSAB lost, McLeast lost (0-12 from 3).
And here, both teams start the night off with a turnover.
29 to 16 Cajuns 2:09 left in first half
29-16 Cajuns. 2 mins left in the first.
31-18 halftime
USA played the equivalent of two bad quarters of WBB. 9 points in the first ten minutes, 9 in the second ten minutes.
I’m nervous.
40-34 Cajuns with 12:48 to go in the 2nd half
Cajuns 52 USA. 52
5 MIN LEFT
Just not smart bball. Two really bad missed opportunities
We’re still the team that can’t shoot straight.
For whatever reason UL is always on the short of stamina down the stretch almost every game this year.Quote:

No disrespect to anyone on the team as people. They are trying their hardest, and I’m sure they are all great guys. It’s just inconceivable how far we’ve fallen.
Tie game with a chance to win and they chuck up a 3. Even if you have no luck driving to the basket, the foul possibility is there and you’re in the double bonus. That’s a higher probability than making a 3.Quote:

Missed the post game with Jay returning to car. Did he ask Coach Z about last possession in regulation. Head scratcher. Our whole game plan is pass around the arc and shoot a three with under five seconds left while under duress. Great plan if you’re shooting 50%. That was bad play and coaching. We even saw coach having Mo play with his back to the basket. He drives. Period. Just silly bball. I guess we have no one that can play effectively inside. Poor Rvans looked lost. I don’t think we’re doing a very good job developing that kid. He’s such a great young man with so much upside…. But who is working with him????
Very frustrated evening. Just not fun watching really bad ball. It’s back to the Fletcher era when we had no defense. Now we can only play fair defense. No offense.
Arrrr.
Can’t wait until this is over. And we hire a good coach to re build this thing.
Sucks to lead most of the game only to lose at the end. Very similar to USM game
Figure if the staff is totally replaced, HK will get “offered” by McNeese and A StateQuote:

There's simply is no inside presence. Hopefully Kentenge will be back next year for us and not with someone else.
