McNeese State has a four-guard lineup anchored by Trae English (11.8 ppg) along with a terrific frontcourt force in 6-7 Christian Shumate (10.7 ppg, 9.5 rpg). They've had a brutal schedule to start the campaign with four games against Top 20 opponents, including one from the SEC and two from the Big 12. Lamar is home but has lost eight of nine. The offense turns it over 14 times per game while shooting 42.7% from the field, 26.3% from long range, and 64.9% from the free-throw line. These teams met in November and McNeese won 66-57 making 12 3-pointers (34.3%). Lamar shot 39.3% from the field and was 4-of-24 (16.7%) from beyond the arc. Play McNeese State on the moneyline.
