LSU has certainly been a disappointment this season as the competition has gotten tough, it has gotten progressively harder for them to score. This is a team that shoots 45% on the season but those numbers are very misleading. They shot an average of 56% vs. Miss Valley State, Samford, and Wright State, finding the bottom of the net vs. the cupcakes. But they have shot just 37.8% in their last six games, and outside of the three patsies mentioned above, they have not shot over 45% vs. anyone! A team that controlled the boards out-rebounding opponents in seven of eight games have now been -6 in two straight games. The wheels have completely fallen off. Georgia continues to improve and has a lot of offensive weapons, especially at home where they connect on 51% and 40% from beyond the arc, while allowing just under 40% to their opponents. LSU has yet to cover in a road game 0-6 so far, and is 0-8 on the season vs. good teams that win 60% of their games or more. They are only 3-12 ATS vs teams with a winning record. Georgia by double digits!
