This game is going to be one hell of a test for LSU. Completely different than any other team we have played so far in every aspect: Talent, skill, size, coaching.
LSU is going to have to shoot it way better from three, and make free throws just to be able to have a chance to win this one. I would be pleasantly surprised if they can win this game, but also be really excited if we just compete well against them. I expect this LSU team to just get better and better as the season goes, so losing this game (even by 10+) would not be a reason to panic, although it will not stop some people.

Really like this team and think we put up a great fight and keep it close for most of the game, but I think the Zags are a little more cohesive than us right now and will have the home crowd so I think they pull away a bit at the end.
85-78 Zags but Tigers are trending up

I can't wait to see the line. This feels like a Gonzaga win by 8-10 points.

87-80 Gonzaga
I'm curious to see if LSU's defense is for real, or just a byproduct off its early schedule. This game should tell us a lot.
IMO, I think Skyy Clark is the key. I think LSU's frontcourt can match Gonzaga. I think Dent is a better PG than anyone Gonzaga has. But LSU desperately needs someone to step up at the 2 spot in this game
I think it will be somewhere in the Gonzaga -6.5 - 8.5 range.

LSU 77
Gonzaga 74
LSU would be very smart to have the game on the big screens in the PMAC before the game. Would be a great atmosphere in there.

Such a hard game to predict because LSU hasn't been tested now that they are full strength. Gonzaga has at least beaten Purdue by 6.
LSU did beat a LA Tech team that is predicted to be a really good team, but how good is LA Tech compared to Purdue?
Either way, I think it is a close game. I could see LSU squeaking out a 1-4 point win, but I can also see them dropping the game by 5-7 points at the end because of having to foul Gonzaga players.
We are trending the right direction! I am expecting great things this season.

Still waiting in a definitive point spread to come out.
Anything in double digits im firing big on the good guys.
We are being slept on by the national media types. Will be interested to see how it carries over to Vegas. I know the public will be big time on the Zags so that plays in our favor
Probably be a real pros vs Joe's situation on the bet split if I had to gusss

Advanced analytics say Gonzaga by 2-4 pts. The key for LSU is keeping Dent out of foul trouble, which hasn't been an issue so far. PG is the one position where there isn't a great rotation. Everywhere else, Wade has a couple of guys that he can plug in without a big drop-off.

LSU played @ FSU (exhibition) at full strength. LSU lost by 2. FSU looks to be a solid team. They beat Auburn in an exhibition and were in a tight game vs. Florida until the final 5:00 a few days ago. LSU outshot FSU (FG%-wise) by a pretty significant margin (50% - 43%) and was really good from 3 (15 made threes). What killed LSU that game was turnovers and poor defensive rebounding.
IMO, defensive rebounding (and FTs) will be the stat to watch for LSU. If they give GU a lot of second chances then LSU has not shot.

Who is predicting La Tech to be good? Some guy in Ruston? They were picked to finish 12th in a pretty weak Sun Belt Conference. Tech isn't good. That's why LSU was a 30 point favorite...and probably could have won by 50 if they didn't let up a bit at the end.

I'm hoping we stay within 10 all game.

Zag 90
Tigers 81
But puts people on notice that when this team gels they will be really good.

Yeah Gonzaga played two quality teams so far and eventually ran away with it against New Mexico st. They have some real talent in foggle who I assume niang will focus on if we’re in man. If they get hot they could run away with it. Wiggins may be rusty with his first game eligible but he adds talented depth. I’m estimating 4 or 5 key returners for Gonzaga so they have the chemistry.
We could steal this one but realistically seeing a 72-85 score.
