Home game for the Scarlet Knights, so hoping most of the posters here will be at the game. Perhaps we can use this thread as the game thread. Please post updates here during the game if you are able. My attention will be on the UNM-NMSU game that is at the same time. Thank you.

The game is a toss-up. LSU is #56 in the Massey ratings with Offense #132 (63.9 ppg), Defense #13 (51.3). RU ranks #63 or #64 (both numbers appears on different pages) with Offense #226 (63.7), Defense #6 (52.0). Let us hope that home-court advantage prevails.

3rd quarter collapse. As usual.

Well, if the second half echos the first half, RU will be okay. Not that these extended periods of poor play are welcome in any way. Perhaps they woke just in time?

RU 32, LSU 28

I think people too often forget that a competitive basketball game is one of runs. The hopes are that your team always has the last one and that it is enough to win the game or put it away.

Our guards just don't take care of the ball. Head scratching unforced turnovers. Maddening.

Scoreboard not loading after RU 51 LSU 43. Finally checked twitter to see the FINAL SCORE:

RU 57, LSU 43!

Going to guess that the game took forever to end because RU was at the FT line and hit their shots.

That is our biggest win of the season in that LSU is usually a good team and came in with a good record. Hopefully, this gets RU ready to make a run in the B1G.

Anyone know when Charlotte game is to be played? Are the Scarlet Knights playing again before conference play starts?

The FT% seems to have stabilized. To be honest, I will take a 70+% in the B1G.

Those refs were atrocious. They could not make a simple decision and kept reviewing things and even then could not decide. Ridiculous
