MBB Final: Louisiana (82) vs Georgia State (81)

On top of all of this, the ESPN announcers called us LOUISIANA the entire game. They weren't bias towards GaState at all, they were actually singing our praises quite a bit. Not sure why so many here feel we were slighted by the broadcasters… I think they did a great job.

The Cajuns just beat a great team with great players. Would not be as good if we beat an average team.Bob Marlin I apologize, your boys have arrived, no more tomorrows.

Wondering what Ramon's mom is saying, and the AAU mafia?

Wondering what is going on at LTU@RusTON?

... and now we do have 20 Division I wins.

Since I was the one questioning the 20 game season, YES we do. Hope those three games, in the eyes of the NCAA selection committee, against non existent teams do not hurt our seeding.

Completely agree. I got aggravated with the air time that Harrow's dad kept getting (not his fault, and his kid had an amazing game), but the announcers did just fine in my opinion

And knew the team... knew how valuable J.J. was... I was extremely happy about that. Could've showed the dad a little more, though.

well as long as we don't lay an egg like we did in '05 and this year's team plays hard I'll be happy!

??? Lay an egg? I wouldn't call taking final four Louisville to the wire w/o O. Greene laying an egg.

I thought they were throwing the Lafayette around earlier in the game and then quit, but I did think that they slanted toward Ga St on the broadcast

My apologies. Knew I meant '04 but typed '05 instead! '05 was definitely a great effort!

I just had an interesting encounter. Right after the game I grabbed a beer and went out to hotel pool area to read the post game RP comments. Of course I was wearing a UL shirt. I was there about 2 minutes when a guy stops by and mentions he played basketball at USL in the 80's. He introduces himself, Sam Sheppard and I tell him about the tournament. We talked for about 20 minutes about the games at Blackham, Marty Fletcher, & several other things. It was just a cool coincidence.

The announcers used Louisiana from the first, and only UL Lafayette to identify he official name a couple of times. They gushed on both teams. I think they had to gush on Harrow who took over the second half. In the end the master took over the game.

Congrats to EP, Long, Rimmer, Mbamalu, for huge games at the right moments. And JJ you continue to amaze.
