Both squads go into Tuesday nights matchup boasting a 1-0 record for the season. The Cowboys come to Baton Rouge after beating Louisiana College 72 to 54 in front of a whopping 492 fans. McNeese State isn’t a very deep squad. All of their starters played over 25 minutes and only 4 others played, each playing under 15 minutes. McNeese only had 8 bench points. This will obviously be a problem against an LSU team that likes to run and wear out their opponent.
McNeese also had 16 turnovers against div II Louisiana College. LSU will try to really pressure McNeese into some turnovers. McNeese was led by Senior Dontae Cannon the 6’1” shooting guard who had 21 points and 3 assists. He made 1 of 4 from three point range but 8 of 12 from the field (7 of 8 from 2pt) and 4 of 5 from the FT line. Even with a lineup seriously lacking size, they were able to score 40 points in the paint. Looks like they like to drive and score. They had 14 total fast break points and didn’t allow a single fast break point.
They have a couple 6’7” Freshman that will come in off the bench but they showed very little ability to score. This shouldn’t be much of a game for very long. Look for the Tigers to continue to work on team chemistry and keeping the turnover totals low. The Tigers did much better in their first game than they did in the exhibition. They only had 13 turnovers (only 10 before walk-ons entered). The Tigers need to right the ship at the free throw line and continue to work on their half court offense which at times became stagnant.
Projected Starting Lineups:
McNeese St
1. Kevin Hardy (6’2” 180 Sophomore)
2. Jeremie Mitchell (6’3” 180 Senior)
3. Dontae Cannon (6’1” 168 Senior)
4. Adrian Fields (6’5” 197 Junior)
5. Desharick Guidry (6’5” 200 Sophomore)
LSU
1. Anthony Hickey (5’11” 178 Sophomore)
2. Charles Carmouche (6’4” 187 Senior)
3. Malik Morgan (6’4” 188 Freshman)
4. Shavon Coleman (6’5” 195 Junior)
5. Eddie Ludwig (6’9” 209 Senior)
** This lineup is under the assumption that Johnny O’Bryant will not be playing Tuesday. While he is listed as day-to-day I do not see Jones putting him into the lineup for this game as a precaution. They are very small and the Tigers would not gain a lot (longrun) having JOB play.
Key to the game:
LSU needs to continue to work on keeping turnovers down while also keeping fast break points up.
Prediction:
LSU 82, McNeese St 64
Season: 17-12
TV: CST
Radio: 98.1 FM

CST should have plenty of time to air LSU basketball now since they don't have the Hornets anymore.
It's time to prove that LSU is the best basketball team in Louisiana

South, in one of your previous thread's, you stated that tonight's game will be on espn3. I am not showing the game listed on espn3's schedule for tonight. Why is that dear? Will it not be shown on espn3? I do see now, that you have posted that it will be on CST, I am in Shreveport, and unfortunately i do not think we have CST here on Comcast Cable.
Also, Thank You for your great Basketball previews!
Also, as you stated earlier, Tonight's game will be the first of the Student Point Nights for LSU students to earn points for attending the game. LSU students receive FREE ADMISSION with a valid LSU ID.
I do hope that we have alot of student's and fan's at tonight's game, to support this year's team!
By the way, it is spelled DeRidder, giggles lol.
