MBB SBC-T Final: Louisiana 68, UTA 71

[IberiaCajun]

Yes, but how is this game different than any SBC game? The officials are always terrible, nightly at the Cajun Dome. Don't tell me you haven't seen this all season?

We didn't hit free throws, didn't rebound and we didn't defend well at times. None of those factors have anything to do with officiating.

I'm proud of this group and their effort today. They didn't quit and they never stopped

playing hard in the face of adversity. The result is another season we don't play in the NCAA tournament. Next up, the NIT.

Is it playing in B.R.?

I’m in agreement with you T. We were on the wrong end of more bad refereeing today... but it was our overall play that killed us. UTA was tournament hot and we are not. They aren’t a bad team either.

We uncharacteristically missed free throws... but we also looked a lot on offense like the team that lost that last conference game. I hate to knock Marlin after such a great regular season, but he did not coach well today. UTA was too quick for our stock offense. When we aren’t allowed to have our way, we don’t adjust well.

NIT? No. You must have seen the Bleacher Report “B/R” on the top of an NIT article.

Head cold and lung infection don't even add up. I find it hard to believe it was the latter. If he wasn't playing there is no doubt it was serious. I guess my point was that calling his diagnosis a head cold is unfair to him.

I’ve had some head colds that kicked my butt.

Fair. But that's what TV said our trainers told them.

If you have some sick time available, sure use it. But if you have a major project due in three days and need all 72 hours available to complete it I bet your ___ is rocking and rolling. I have no time for a player throwing in the towel over a head cold...if that is actually the case...which I doubt it.

I just heard he has pneumonia...if correct that is a major game changer and most definitely will hold a player down.

Yesterday someone said upper respiratory infection. Was also told yesterday that they were beating on his back to try and clear his lungs and that he looked like he had pneumonia. Guess they were correct

How much does our absences in the NCAA affect our attractiveness come realignment time?

On to the NIT, maybe we can win that one. I would bet that a lot of teams will not want to meet the Cajuns in the NIT, especially with a healthy Gant and Stove.

I don't expect Stove to be 100% Stove.

80% Stove would make me happy.

He should not have played or even been on the bench two days ago.
