Bracketology: LA vs TN (Orlando)

True for the first meeting and a lot of people have forgotten that game. Which is understandable since it was 40 years ago LOL.

UL made it in as an At-Large, which brought Coach Paschal to tears.

That was in the heels of a beat down in Milwaukee. Shows the respect the program had back then.

Think we were a 13 in 2005. Travesty was that we met Louisville, and they were under-seeded as a 4. They went on to Final Four.

…and don’t forget some horrible calls in that game!

Correct. I remember Pitino making comments about not only them being under seeded but also having to play us as he thought we deserved better than a 13. He gave us much respect and turned out to be correct. We gave them all they wanted and more. Just another coulda woulda shoulda in close tournament games. It’s time that we shake some schitt up around here. I’m with DaBoot. Sweet 16 let’s Geaux!!

If the refs allow Orion Green to play that day Cajuns win that one. They handcuffed him though.

Side notes…along with Tech on a 30!something year run with no tournament, did you know TSATB has only won ONE SEC tournament and auto bid in the modern age (Power conference at larges the rest). And speaking of TSATB, according to the McLeast site, WW has been offered their opening.

Probably a "Small Azz Offer"

Yeah, they’re buying out the last coach’s final year for 165k. Those guys love LSU sloppy seconds a lot.

it would be nice if all schools with “state” in the name were in the “state” university system…. theyd be so much happier could probably even get matching uniforms

So far, with 11 conferences decided, there are 5 champions with NET scores worse than the Cajuns. Assuming that at these levels seeding will be determined by NET score, we need 13 champions with NET scores worse than ours to secure a 13 seed [5 16th, 4 15th and 4 14th]. Right now there are 6 other auto-bids [America East, Big West, MEAC, Patriot, Southland and SWAC] guaranteed to have champions with worse NET than ours. That gives us 5 #16, 4 #15 and 2 #14, making us a lock for a 14th seed.

To get a 13th seed, we need upsets in at least two other conferences. Of the remaining conferences only two have only one team with a better NET than us, so keep your fingers crossed.

Interesting stuff.

Thanks

They got booted out the LSU system. In fact, every 4 year university in the state, except for UL and Tech and the HBCUs were once part of the LSU system. That’s why they all have LSU love. It’s a generational hook.

That was specifically done to stop the other schools from growing.

"No UL, a satallite campus in New Iberia makes zero sense. . Yes LSU a satallite campus in Eunice is a brilliant idea."

Ah, LSUE for a long time was EWE’s country club when he was in Crowley

Watch Bradley get an at large, AD is chairman of the selection committee. NET 74, didn’t win tournament. Guaranteed NIT.
