Then be sure to watch Karl play a great game against Pitt, when Anderson was out in the first with three fouls. It's on RU-vid.com, but didn't come up in my exhaustive searches, so let me try to add this. I didn't miss a home game from Travis's first and six seasons thereafter. These Anderson years are all new to me. So wonderful! Karl was always a blast to watch! Hope he is well. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-YARmhDQW2Vs.html
@@frankdux3605 Your exactly right Frank and it's also why LSU was a first round exit in the '91 tournament! I remember everybody had the Tigers as a sleeper FF pick and they got blitzed by a UConn team that wasn't on it's 1990 level! Shaq and Vernel Singleton played well but they got absolutely no help! Roberts laziness started after '90 and their frosh sensation on that team (Jamie Brandon) got totally outplayed by Chris Smith! UConn made him look like the freshman he was
The coaches that wasted the most amount of talent during my time as a basketball fan goes chronologically from Guy V. Lewis to Dale Brown to Rick Barnes today.
this LSU team, shouldve been in the Final Four..and shouldve won it all....Dale Brown was a GREAT recruiter, but a bad Xs and Os coach. LSU had beaten UNLV a month ago
@@scrap7768 LSU beat UNLV 107-105 in Baton Rouge on January 28 of that season. UNLV finished 35-5, winning the National Championship over Duke 103-73. LSU would finish 23-9, with wins over Loyola Marymount, 148-141 in OT in Baton Rouge, 1 week after the win over UNLV. But they had 6 conference losses, a first-round loss in the SEC, and the second-round loss to Tech in the NCAA.
Man! I can't believe the officiating could be that bad back then. Kudos to Cremins for having his guys just fall down when coming in contact with the twin pryamids...LSU should have won by 100pts.
Ron, Georgia Tech was a way better ballclub than your comment states! They had just come off winning the ACC tournament and Kenny Anderson had what I consider one of the three best freshman seasons in college basketball history! Along with the leadership and toughness Brian Oliver brought to the table! And before I forget Dennis Scott was the best shooter in the country! Yes LSU very easily could have won (had their chances I vividly remember throughout that second half)! But the Jackets provided LSU with the most difficult second round matchup in that year's tournament! It was an unfair draw for them, but that's March Madness
It was, but at the same time, LSU had the toughest second round opponent (Ga Tech) of anybody in that season's March Madness! And don't forget how talented they were! That was a FF caliber game way too early in the tournament! Your a star laden #5 seed and have to face the ACC champions during the first weekend! Very rare u see an unfair match-up of that level that soon! But brackets r meant to be that way! The Dance shows no favorites and u hafta man against next team up! Unfortunately for LSU they got a raw deal
LSU was the superior team here...they needed to get Shaq involved more..Dale Brown was not the best coach..LSU beat UNLV and Loyoly Marymount already...GT was an OK team..very beatable
@@arisdelis1 At the same time Georgia Tech was playing their most complete basketball of that season and it was a most unfair second round draw! No other team in the tournament had as difficult a second round matchup than LSU did with Tech
@@arisdelis1 Dale Brown's coaching had nothing to do with that game at all! It was a down to the wire battle between two extremely talented squads that Tech was fortunate enough to win
@@akumawani wasn't that he didn't by any means Akuma! Roberts' problem was his commitment! He had talent by the boatload but he had an on-off switch that he controlled! Instead of putting the consistent work in after his freshman season, he got lazy and that's why LSU was a first round exit in '91
Dude actually had a better offensive game than Shaq. His problem was he ate himself out of the league. He was up over 400lbs. A complete waste of potential.
Wilt would have had 70 points in this game theirs no way shaq can be considered the most dominant big man ever when he didn’t even dominate college basketball with twin towers at that. I’d argue Chris Jackson as top 2 most dominant college players ever if we don’t discredit (pistol Pete) accolades.
Absolute crap coaching by LSU. No damn way this team with that skill and talent should have lost this game. No wonder two of their best players left after this embarrassment.
