Da Boot Sports 1/14/2023 By: Terrill J. Weil TUSCALOOSA, AL - LSU traveled to Tuscaloosa to take on a red hot Alabama basketball team and payed the price as the Crimson Tide dismantled the Bayou Bengals on national television, 106-66. Holy S**t! For the second straight contest there simply isn't much to write about. LSU simply picked up where they left off in the second half of Tuesday night's game against Florida. Ugly Basketball! The worse LSU loss since the 1994-95 season. "That was as thorough of a butt kicking as I've ever been a part of. Got to give a lot of credit to Alabama,” said Coach Matt McMahon. “Not many positives to take away, I guess the only thing is in the second half we didn't lay down and get beat by a hundred." Cam Hayes and KJ Williams both lead the Tigers in scoring with ten points each, followed by Derek Fountain and Justice Williams who both finished with nine points apiece. Alabama did a lot of their damage from behind the three point arc, hitting 20-54 for 37% on the night. They attempted 33 of those in the first 20 minutes, sinking 14 of them as they took a commanding 59-22 lead into the locker room at half. Freshman Brandon Miller was red hot from behind the arc, hitting 7-11 three pointers, finishing with 31 points for the Tide. The Tide also dominated LSU on the boards, outrebounding the Tigers, 52-38. With the loss LSU will limp home on a four game losing streak as they are now 12-4 overall and 1-3 in SEC play. Next up the Tigers will try to stop the bleeding as they host a very good Auburn team on Wednesday, Jan. 18 at 6:00pm CST in the Pete Maravich Assembly Center/Dale Brown Court. *John 14:6 - "I am the way and the truth and the life.
