but we are peaking at the right time.

How many times have we "turned the corner" this season???
I wouldn't be too sure we won't lose Wednesday, this team has a way with blowing easy ones

the lack of tailgating kills the energy for the students. frankly, students generally cheer only if they're sauced. I also tend to think people are just vain, and being so close to those front few rows makes students think "I'm too cool to do that". I'll cheer, yes, but I'm guilty of not being as rowdy for basketball than football.

i have to say that it's great being able to sneak in whatever you'd like. I'm sure that would quickly change if the student section was as wild as football

It was a 1 PM basketball game after a Friday night.... Not many students wake up from their hangovers and want to go to a basketball game.

Nah. Not much different than our final 4 run in 06. Started out the year 8-5 before SEC play. Team had zero buzz, was not ranked much of the year & the PMAC never stayed consistently full. This team has the same potential & our fans are missing some great basketball.

are you aware at the number of students that go to LSU relative to the amount that were at the baseball game Friday night? Don't use that lame arse excuse insult the intelligence of the good people Tiger rant

Afternoon bump back to the top...

This seems like a perfect opportunity for the athletic department to make this a priority point game for the students. Actually, I'm not sure why every basketball game isn't a point game - at least 1/2 a point per game. Anything at all to help make basketball a priority to the students would be an improvement.

It's a pretty relevant excuse. The types of students that like going to games typically party.

I think Martin should do a triple backflip dunk if in the open lane.

You are aware people go out after the baseball games right? It's not one or the other...

Coming from a student here now I might know just a tad bit more than you on this topic.

As a student who has been to 6 games this year and many in years past. I hardly ever actually sit in the student section, I go find better empty seats somewhere else. Many students do this fwiw.

If the students don't wanna go to the games frick em! If I can carry my tired azz down from Shreveport for several games, they can get their dead hungover lazy azzes out of their beds and get over and support the tigers.
