MBB Final: Louisiana102, Georgia Southern 91

[UL_Cajuns]

Double digit road win over 3rd place team and still feels like we played poorly.

It is odd how we give up so many points yet win by double digits. Whatever works.

RPI up to 51.

That tookie brown is a scoring machine. Getting him in Foul trouble in the first half was key. Might’ve been a different finish.

Both teams with 27 fouls each! Gant fouled out, and UL still had 5 other players with 4, WOW! Refs not too good!

Tookie Brown is a playground player. He doesn't know how to run an offense.

I think you are right. They are dead last in the SBC in assists at under 10 per game and the ball is in his hands most of the time.

The sad thing about it is we allowed him to play that type of ball in the second half. I agree about the officiating, but we aren't playing good basketball as a team right now. Take the win on the road, enjoy it tonight and come on home.

My goodness. Defense needs to step back up.

Defense played pretty well most of the game. The problem was they were trying to run them off the 3 point line which allowed him to beat his man off the dribble and get to the hoop. They also shot the ball a lot better than they have much of the year. I agree that 90+ points is too much but there was a reason we gave up a ton in the second half. Not to mention all those terrible foul calls that put them at the line for which they shot way over their average as well.

I mentioned this in the comments before, coach talked about this in the post game. They were running him off the 3 point line to limit the comeback but unfortunately it allowed him to get to the rim. The game was called so tight they were afraid to try to really defend him once he got there.
