LSU basketball deserves better

this type of loss is the most gut wrenching
It certainly has resulted in more outrage on the rant than the previous losses-- including the botched last minute vs Aggies, the 43-15 explosion by a bad SC team, and a similar wretched start at Vanderbilt. And it's all the result of mathematics -- and science -- not McMahon having a brain spasm on sidecourt.
If Chandler had tossed that inbound pass just one foot shorter-- or longer -- Moreno would have been out of position to make the basket in time, or the pass would have been picked off. Science, not bad coaching lost the game. Not to mention Pedro Tomba's bricks late.

Taking the emotion out of it, you aren't wrong. But when you are 14-43 in SEC play a coach, unfortunately, doesn't get the benefit of the doubt. The irony is last night was the flipside of the last time Kentucky played at LSU.
LSU had no business winning that game 2 years ago. Wright made a bad induvial play on the final possession to get himself behind the backboard, leaving him with no shot whatsoever with 2 seconds remaining. Luckily, he had the wherewithal to just throw the ball into the lane as a last-ditch effort where a waiting Ward made a great play by jumping, catching, and shooting the ball at the buzzer.
That's how fine the line is sometimes between "great" and a bum.

Go after Petino. He would fit the culture and talk like those from the NOLA area and he's catholic

This is like Nebraska football trying to hold on to relevance now and saying "Come play here! We were great a long time ago!"

We were all shocked at the final score after watching how they played in the first half.

Unfortunately it doesn't get easier for the Tigers on Saturday. Missouri is tied with Arkansas and Vandy for 1st place in conference play, and so far they've been a veritable bashi-bazouk in SEC action: upsetting Florida, beating Kentucky on the road and beating Auburn convincingly last night. Shockingly ESPN analytics has the Tigers with a 60.5% likelihood of beating Missouri-- somehow I don't see it happening. LSU IMO comes out shell-shocked like they did vs SC earlier.
And Florida on the road follows that
And Arkansas on the road follows that
We're lookin' at an 0-7 start right out of the gate. No bueno
