New Orleans will head to Baton Rouge to take on LSU. The Privateers will probably bring a lot of fire, taking on the state's premier team, but that will come up far short of an upset. LSU is 4-1 and will be without head coach Will Wade, who will miss his second straight game after a positive Covid-19 test. The Tigers could also be without Trendon Watford, who is either nursing an ankle injury. The Tigers have slept through some easy games, allowing SIU Edwardsville and St. Louis to both shoot over 50 percent. I don't think they will be fully invested in this game either, and New Orleans is probably going to bring their best game vs an in-state power. This is a really long line to take down, and I'm making the play on New Orleans.
