At home 7 pm. KPEL 96.5 or Varsity network.
The excitement is ULMost too much to bare. I know ULM is bad too. No way....none, we should be favored over anyone in D1 by -7.5. Our 3 x D1 wins are just as much based on the other team collapsing in some way in final 5-10 minutes than anything we did to shut down our opponents.
That all said....I do think we win tonight by 7.49!!!!!
In front of about 100 fans.Quote:

I must admit the game has been much better than the halftime entertainment…… recognizing some scouts with a 3’ tug of war and 10 minutes watching some random kid shoot around on the court.
Cajuns take lead, 51-50 9+ min left
Cajuns with a nice run, up 55-53 with 7:50 left.
Cajuns win 71-68 with some clutch free throw shooting in last minute of game.
Dub 5
3-2 SBC
Cajuns lived by the three tonight.
Cajuns only missed 2FT, Hoax missed 10. There’s your victory.
ULM tried to match 3s at the beginning then Richard got them to start using their size advantage.
Entertaining game.

Would be shocked UL breaks out the NET 300+ club this year. But they haven’t just quit yet this season, so at least UL recruited men of character.
Really poor shooting from the field. Hit better % from the 3 vs. 2. FTs were our savior esp Wright at end. Four straight. And he had been struggling at the line. We just lack height. And the ability to shoot. And consistency. But, the kids have heart, they hustle on defense and Hosanna pushes them.
But we just about be listening a game that would have tanked us. ULMis not a good team.
ODU will jump significantly due to their win at South Alabama tonight. Jags had been undefeated in league play. Monarchs are hottest team in the league now. They have some good athletes on that team.Quote:

People may be surprised to hear this but the Warhawks have big men more physical than the Cajuns. Shows how we are lacking in that regard. Now the Cajuns made adjustments as well. Warhawks played zone most of game which is why Cajuns shot a lot of threes. Late in game, ULM played more man to man and the Cajuns started attacking the basket more. When Cajuns were having trouble on the boards, Coach Z had Zeke Cook come into the game at the appropriate times and he came up with big rebounds. Also, a good move to foul the Warhawks when up 3 with a few seconds to go. That proved to be a great decision. Kentrell Garnett deserves credit for a great all around game. Had 15 points but more importantly 5 assists. He played a lot at point tonight due to Christian Wright being in foul trouble and Michael Thomas missing the game due to a concussion.Quote:

Trailing for much of the game and never leading by more than four points, the Louisiana men's basketball team pulled off a hard-fought win over in-state rival ULM, 71-68, on Saturday in the Cajundome.
Why would we be surprised that their big men are more physical? We have 2 guys over 6'8"Quote:

Surely pulling for the guys to do so. Will take a surprise or two to get there, but obviously they like Zim. The guys will get tested, February could be brutal, not a lot of easy games.Quote:
