MBB Final: Louisiana (73) vs Coastal Carolina (69)

[Go_UL]

Yes the ending was ugly due to the turnovers caused by Coastal Carolina's aggressiveness. There was contact on several plays in which a foul was not called. There was even a play where Wronk called time after he corralled a rebound which was not given. Of course a turnover occurred. Free throws missed hurt as well. Of course two missed were front ends of one and ones which are always an adventure. Pressure goes up substantially in those situations.

Still, don't you guys know by now how difficult it is to close out a road game. I was not surprised in the least it went to the wire and in fact expected it. As it turned out we can smile as the staff has garnered their first non conference road win, the team just won a championship, and one of our guys just got the MVP trophy (Shawn Long). Wed. game against Northwestern will be difficult as they score a lot and beat Auburn a few days ago.

They also lost to ULM 84 - 80.

Coach Marlin said at last week's Rebounders meeting that ULM is much improved and expects a tough game when we go there to open conference play in early January.

I love spanking the War Chickens in everything. We will spank the chickens in basketball this year.

I hope when can get a good crowd up there in January. The game is early, with the women opening the day, so it is possible to drive up there and drive back the same day. That is my plan and I hope others will come up and support the Cajuns.

Northwestern had an 18 point lead in their game against ULM. Missed free throws allowed the game to go into OT where the Warhawks took contol. Demons also hit only four threes in that game and that is usually one of their staples. Of course when they come to the Dome on Wed. they likely won't struggle so much with that as we always catch teams at the top of their game.

MelRock, you are aware basketball is also available on Hot 107.9. That signal should take care of any issues you might have.

Thanks Jay, I did find it after I posted on here and just didn't update the thread. Your call was about 4 seconds ahead but it was worth it, it also allowed me to look to see where the ball was going so I did not miss anything. Great call this weekend and thanks to the station for covering all of the games.
