Final: Louisiana (94) vs La. Tech (86)

It looked like a good win. It felt like a good win. One thing we should all be able to recognize, is that the Cajuns stepped up their level of play tonight. I see some still bringing up my "soft" comment about Shawn. I'm glad I could "motivate" him, but I stand by my statement. He had a strong game and was relentless at times, but after we started hitting shots and he started making the collapsing man pay, that's when he started domunating (a less than physical) inside presence for La Tech. He needs others to be affective from outside in order to get his game in a ryrhym. Having said that, he did go to work on the glass. One of his more memorable performances. Great win overall.

Just a word about tech fans that showed up at the dome: douchebags. Insufferable d bags, every single one of you sitting in 211 and 210. It was brutal listening to these bafoons.

Ha. The dude in the aisle seat on 2nd row of 211 with a Tech colored cardigan... Every Tech basket he gave an obnoxious "in your face" type cheer directed toward cajun fans. That was the only dbag I really saw. (In fact, there were a couple of them I enjoyed watching.)

You want to see some bridge jumpers, go to Bulldawg bites or whatever it is. They have given up hope for an at large bid, the ultimate testament to being pretty good.

LTU R is not a good team, they are a good C USA team maybe. Coach was talking them up as being our best opponent this year. Really? We shall see.

They are absolutely much better than the Brokebacks so no matter how we sugarcoat it, that was an awful loss.

They were in the Top 25 last year and returned four starters. They were projected to be an 11 or 12 seed in the tourney and have a likely 2nd round NBA draft pick. I think Ga State is more talented. But, Tech is good

They were so good last year they failed to be an at large team.

Their own fan base acknowledges that they cannot play against good big people, and WKU will run them.

They are more likely a NIT team if that.

All I am saying is we lost to a very bad Brokeback team, and beat a pretty good LTU R team that is NOT GOOD. GOOD IS being at least an at large quality NCAA team. They will not be an at large team, and will not be better than a 12 seed if they win their tournament.

What you are saying is that no matter what this team does with Marlin as head coach it won't be an accomplishment unless they beat Duke, Uconn and Kentucky on the road 3 games in a row. We get it. You have no respect for our opponents or our team.
