It is a very "streaky" type sport, some players or team hit hot streaks and they don't seem to miss. It's part of how Auburn made it to the final four not too long ago

there is no explaining away a 40 point loss AT HOME with the combo of talent and experience we have.

No one can make excuses for shite performance like LSU fans.

Our defense is bad and they play with an obvious lack of effort.

No amount of “streaky” will fix that.

Streaky? Yes. But losing by 40+ points is more than just being a victim of a *hot streak*. A hot shooting team got on a streak and we had ZERO answers to it. Literally none. We got raped.

No it's what happens when you don't contest 3's. Pretty simple you don't know shite about basketball

I'll add that it's a mid-January game as well.

People are prisoners of the moment and this loss is really bad, but this is a true statement. #6 Tennessee just lost by 30 to Florida and couldn't even score 50 points. It happens.

It's quite simple really. When you at home hosting a fellow sec team and you don't have a clue what ya got on your team or how good you are and you run your mouth like javante smart does acting like his squad is the best and no one can stop them, yahhh buddy it's not always good unless you are Joe burrow with the rest of his team and can back it up like he did in 2019 season. Bama players didn't talk all that shite, just worked hard and bear the crap out of LSU at home. Hope LsU can learn from that and build on something.

This.

For LSU, we need to regroup and keep the spirits up. For Bama, they're going to ride high as they should. They're playing dominant basketball right now.
