Who would have predicted we would have played this well, losing by 6, after losing by 40 to this team just a few weeks ago? Impressed. Reese will be a problem for us for the next 2 years, but I think we put notice out to LSU today. Our freshmen and underclassmen nearly stole one from you today! Gig'em!

Aggies out scored LSU in the 2nd half but the horrid 8 point first quarter got them too far behind. Great team effort for the Aggies.

If Joni can get a top notch post player and get Bowles on track this team could be real dangerous for next few years with Barker, Hylton, and Petticord gaining valuable experience this year.

Less than beautiful game, but we finished within ten against an undefeated, highly ranked opponent at home. Too many turnovers and orebs by LSU to expect that outcome so definitely had some defensive effort especially starting late in the first half and then Barker helped spin us up on offense to try to close.

Had a blast in the second half. Just need to put 4 quarters together to win a game like that. Definitely saw some pride and fight carrying us today. Proud of the team.

Very proud of the women today. We need to pick up a few wins to build on this effort.

Worst officiating I've seen in a long time. It's like they changed the rules with every change in possession.

I predict we are a hand full next year

Was at the game today, then came home and watched it on DVR. It was one of the most poorly officiated games I've ever seen. So many calls that looked bad in person, looked just as bad or worse watching on TV. Even the TV commentators thought so. One of the few calls the refs did get right was the taunting call on Reese. She's been doing that all season and finally gets T'ed up for it. She's an incredible talent but her attitude is obnoxious and self-serving much of the time. Kinda reminds me of her coach lol, who was actually better behaved today than I've seen her. Now about those Aggies what a tremendous game we played today! So very proud of our fight! Despite a very cold shooting first quarter, we didn't give up…we didn't back down. We kept fighting and fighting, and nearly took down the #3 team. We held them 15 pts below their scoring average, and we scored 13 points above their pts allowed. I believe in this coaching staff and I believe in our players. The future is bright. As someone else said, I look forward to seeing Reese and Barker battle in the coming years. I'll take Barker any day of the week. She's just going to keep getting better and better. So many players had great moments for us today. I loved the fire I saw in Sahara! She really stood out to me. Hilton's shooting was also outstanding. I see so much growth in so many of our players. Let's keep building on this. Can't wait to see next year's class added to this team, including whoever we get from the portal. We're going to be a force in the coming years! Gig Em Ags!!!

I saw highlights and I really liked how the Ags stayed in the game after being down. In regard to officiating the Kim Mulkey show prevails. She has always been a chronic complainer and the refs are intimidated. Basketball officiating is poor all the way around even in the mens. Fouls due to body contact are always a mystery to me. If hands or arms contact the player then so be it but contact does not mean a foul with body to body contact. Same on a charge versus a block . Very inconsistent on a judgement call.

We have a TEAM!!!!!

Alexis Morris (LSU ) - 9 turnovers and fouled out

9 turnovers. Wow. I didn't believe it. Yep, I checked the box score and she did have 9 turnovers against us in 34 minutes before fouling out.

Great scorer, a player that would help most every team, but highly inconsistent.
