WBB/MBB: Georgia Southern at Louisiana

[Ragin4U]

Attendance? Crowd was raucous.

nice crowd. We didnt play with energy though. And the free throws!!!!
Need to bounce back against GAST. Get off the floor coach!

Soutgern was simply stronger and faster as a team. #4 was smoking any player we put on him going to the basket. Hardy finally looked like a freshman, was lost most of the game. Better team won, and they are very young. Yes, the ref crew sucked, but in no way the reason we lost.

13-22 (59%) at the free throw line and 3-18 (17%) from behind the 3 point line.

There's you ball game. Nothing else mattered.

Right on time. Figured you would show up eventually.

I have a hard time posting while at a game. My phone is slower than molasses.

I love this team. I dislike this coach. Until he does something to change that you can pretty much count on that being the theme to my posts.

I did buy season tickets for basketball so at least a Marlin team has me in the building.

Spot on: second half only, (22-26) from the charity line and Cajuns (4-9).....that's where we lost it. The refs gave GSU 17 more looks at the FTL.

Glad youre back in the Dome.

I'm assuming Bruce Benedict (former Braves catcher) is the older white haired ref. Unfortunately, when he is doing our games, the refs are very much a part of the game and make themselves a prominent noticeable force in the game. Not good. Refs were inconsistent on both sides of the ball and were a momentum killer. Call the real fouls. Not the ticky tack ones, please! Also, seems like Tookie literally tucked the ball like a football while driving to the basket. How does he get away with that? Walking every time!

24-48 (50%) from the field, 29-37 (78%) from free throw line ... to many easy backdoor shots & GS made their free throws.

I didnt realize that was Bruce Benedict out there. Ironic that his son went to Georgia Southern? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bruce_Benedict

This was a frustrating one. 5,500 in attendance. That means and extra 1,500 came to see the Cajuns and were let down. Seems like any time we get on a roll and draw big, we drop the ball. That's what I'm disapponted about.

With that said...
Cajuns are 12-5! Before the season I would have expected more like 5-12. Let's bounce back against Ga State and their cry baby coach!!
