LSU is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 Wednesday games and 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games following a win. The over is 7-3 in LSU’s last 10 games. Arkansas is 4-0-1 ATS in their last 5 home games and 7-1 ATS in their last 8 Wednesday games. The over is 13-6 in Arkansas’ last 19 Wednesday games.

Arkansas comes into this game playing excellent basketball over their last few months. LSU has been a bit inconsistent this season, but is fighting for a NCAA Tournament spot. LSU has been very sharp on defense and will have to be to contain a high-powered Arkansas attack. I don’t think you can go against Arkansas while they are on this run and at home.
