This is the biggest game of the Matt McMahon era. With a win against the Kentucky Wildcats the Tigers will move into a 7th place tie in the SEC with the winner of Ole Miss and Mississippi State and Texas A&M with the three teams sporting a 6-7 record. It would be a big step forward for the nascent McMahon program to derail the Big Blue and step up into the lofty environs of the upper half of the league with two weeks left in the regular season.. The Tigers need to take advantage of a three game home stand and place themselves in line for post season play with a strong finish. A loss tomorrow night is expected but if the Tigers play smart, finish at the rim and play disruptive defense the program can pull off the win and serve notice they will once again be a force to reckon with.

Kinda sad when just to finish in the top half of the SEC is considered a major accomplishment.

It’s probably a long shot but they have a chance to run the table after Kentucky

Man, I wish we could have played em two or three weeks back. They are unfortunately playing their best ball.

I think as with all of our games this year, and last year for that matter - rebounding is the key. We have to rebound at a respectable clip to have a shot.

Did you see what Kentucky did to Auburn in Auburn last week? Kentucky is really really playing good right now. The line is 7.5 and I think should be 10-12. Pray for a win but don’t expect it. LSU has a long way to go.

We have more Quad 1 wins that Alabama and Auburn at 3. They are at 2 apiece. If we can win tonight, that gives this team a lot of confidence heading into remaining, all very winnable games. Look out now.

OP's original statement does hold but is still a hypothetical. How many times have we gotten up for a big jump start game in the Pmac only to be embarrassed?. those of us who actually follow the sport understand what a horrible matchup UK is for this LSU team.
