MBB Final: Louisiana 77, UTA 65

[Cajunsmike]

Both games are on ESPN3.

Has Saturday's game been confirmed for ESPN3. I thought it was just tonight's game.

Happy it is on TV. Two win this week would really generate some excitement.

It would be a shame to lay an egg tonight. Seems like every time we do folks who only see the team occasionally assume it is like that every night and give no credit to the overall season. That being said, I expect our guys to prepare well and play hard. You just never know when a bad shooting night will come and that can change any game. Make no mistake, UTA has lots of talent. They have had some chemistry issues on the road but they have blown several people out at home and their last game at Ark State was a blowout. I recall we struggled there. A win tonight would be impressive.

Given the travel issues and the points you've made, a win tonight would probably be the best performance of the year to date.

Mike I think he is referring to both games today are on ESPN 3 the girls and the guys.

Can't wait for this game tonight. UTA has one of the best arenas and atsmopheres in the SBC.

With both teams at the top of the standings and students back in school, it should be electric tonight.

This is excellent news. I would much rather watch than only listen on radio. Its just too sad that CST can let you catch any Grand Canyon U game you want but we just can't watch the cajuns.

I'm much happier it being on ESPN3 than having Len Rollins ULL is to death on Cox.

I feel like this is a trap game. Crappy travel itinerary, underperforming opponent due for a breakout game, riding a win streak; all signs point to a letdown. I will be very impressed with a win.

Would people quit talking about the travel? These guys are in college, they sleep on couches and eat Taco Bell they aren’t 60 years old. They were on a bus not a crawfish skiff. In fact being 6’6 I’d imagine being on a bus is more comfortable than a plane. I drive to Arlington all the time, it’s not that bad and you know they can pull over and stop right? If they lay an egg it’s bebause they laid an egg..not because of a damn 7 hour bus ride.

[Ragin4U]

Long bus rides are no joke.
ANY road win is a good win. Cajuns can't start like they did Saturday.

And Arlington isn’t a long bus ride. Colorado is a long bus ride.

[Ragin4U]

Anything over 3 hours is a long ride, IMO.

And we want to play in the AAC. LOL! Can't complain about any bus ride under 8 hours.
