Interesting matchup and a game that the Tigers need to win.



Rankings for these two teams are a mixed bag. Last week I thought this would be a lock of a win for LSU but now I would give a slight edge to the home team.

Should be a very interesting game. Syracuse is a very similar team to us. Defensively rely heavily on forcing turnovers but also have the tendency to turn the ball over a bit themselves. LSU does have better defense inside the arc than the Orange and Syracuse has struggled to score from outside so far this year. This should be a win for the Tigers if they play to their standards. But if we get the team that showed up in the second half of the North Florida game though, it will be ugly

Should also be noted that Syracuse has played a harder schedule up to this point, with two losses to Tennessee and Gonzaga. I expect it to be a close game

Going to need better guard play to win this one. Syracuse has the upper hand in that department

Is Syracuse still running a 2-3? We've struggled with that this year

Okay, so Syracuse is pretty bad, they haven't had a good performance all year. But the big key is they are DOGSHITE at shooting the three. Currently shooting a 337th best in the country 25.9 percent.


Against all odds our defense actually has been okay this season, the large eye sore? Opponent 3 point percentage, we are giving up 35% from the 3 point line.

LSU simply can't let these guys get going against us if we want to dig this road win out.

Cuse is far from the power they were under Boheim, but their name still carries weight. A road win for the Tigers here would be big.

I'm excited for this game. A must win for us.

Judah Mintz is a baller. We're gonna need to lock him down.

The play-by-play guy isn’t bad, but man this color guy is absolutely garbage. His mic is way too hot

I am done. Mcloser is a special type of crappy coach.

Pathetic performance once again and zero idea how to scheme evident.

Two less than mediocre teams.

Just shut down the basketball program. The refs won’t let us play. I guess they still think we’re cheating.

The only time I have watched LSU men’s basketball play this year was that first minute and a half of the second half. Mistake turning that on. My goodness
