If you’ve been on Twitter during LSU’s run to its first ever national championship, you’ve probably seen people in and outside of the program tweet the words “LSU, yeah that LSU.”
That’s in response to this January tweet by Daniel Connolly, who covers UConn women’s hoops for our UConn sister site The UConn Blog.
UConn women's basketball dropped one spot to No. 5 in the AP Poll despite going undefeated.
LSU – yeah, that LSU – leapfrogged them to No. 3.— Daniel Connolly (@DanielVConnolly) January 16, 2023Connolly was dismissive of the Tigers then and since then those four words have turned into a purple and gold rallying cry.
