Bad matchup for LSU, really.

They should be able to take advantage of our lack of post depth. Also, they rebound it VERY well. Have all season.

Unless we just have a really great shooting game (on the road, not likely), I really just don't see us winning this game. I would say it could be a double-digit loss, but they don't have the offensive firepower to beat us that soundly, I don't think.

Gonna need a big, big game from Simmons if we're going to win this one. I think South Carolina wins and covers the spread.

Shooters and role players typically don't play well on the road. We have to go in with the mindset that we have to get to the rim. We are going to need the Blakeney that is great at scoring around the rim, not the jump shooting Blakeney. Same goes for Hornsby and JPatt. On top of that it is an absolute must that we get Good Tim and Ben and Craig play well.

It's going to be very hard because we have seen consistently throughout the years that SEC refs give the benefit of the doubt to defensive minded basketball teams when they play at home. That alone leaves LSU at a disadvantage.
