2015-16 LOUISIANA Basketball Season is underway

I'll be there with my daughter and girlfriend!

Game tonight will serve as a tune up for Monday night. I don't expect many folks to show up as it is the first night of HS playoffs. Not to mention we likely played a more capable opponent last Monday night.

I think you will be pleasantly surprised with the crowd. I know several who aren't typically interested until January who will be there tonight.

I'm guessing 3-4K...

38 fouls in a HALF.

38.

38 FOULS in a half that took an HOUR to play. Yes, a 20 minute college basketball half took 60 minutes to play.

The refs are messing up the game. Not fun to watch! Stop calling the ticky tack fouls that don't give anyone an advantage or don't change the outcome.

MANY of the 23 fouls on LC and 15 on Cajuns were ticky tack.

Torture!

Let them play BASKETBALL! I didn't come to watch a ref blow a whistle every 30 seconds and watch a free throw shooting contest...

How about 24 from LC picking up his 4th with 2 min left in the 1st half?

Brutal to watch games like that

Refs were terrible, however the Cajuns look really impressive and will be very good this season, especially with the shortened shot clock.

Hedgeman looks very talented and athletic. With the ability of Jay Wright to push the ball up the floor and the forwards to run the lanes in transition, we should be a very, very good offensive team.

Looking forward to this season!!!!!

It's the new rules, supposedly done to free up space and increase scoring. 59 total fouls in the game. 59 fouls. LC 68 points.

Bright side, get out Hedgeman's way if he's headed to the basket, it's getting thrown down.

I was very impressed... But it was just LC. Looking forward to seeing what they can do Monday vs. Miami.

Any local TV?

UL — Within a 40-point season-opening win, the Louisiana men's basketball team saw some early lessons contribute to a gradual scoring spurt.

The crowd was not bad considering what else is going on around the area.

[NewsCopy]

Devonta Walker came off the bench to post his second career double-double, scoring a team-high 17 points and grabbing a game-high 11 rebounds to lead the Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns past in-state opponent Louisiana College, 108-68, in the season-opener on Friday at the Cajundome._
