Georgia vs LSU Prediction
I’ll take a stab on Georgia but you could argue this one either way. It’ll be a fun matchup. The Bulldogs couldn’t hang with Texas A&M in their last outing though, thanks to just 39.7 percent shooting from the field and a 44-38 rebounding deficit. The good news is that Georgia had a 44-34 advantage in the paint but only took half as many free throws (10) as the Aggies did. that makes three straight losses for the Bulldogs, with 86 or more points surrendered in each.
As for LSU, they shot a very nice 51.7 percent from the field and 84 percent (21-of-25) from the line in their win over South Carolina. The Tigers also had advantages on the boards (34-27) and in the paint (42-36). LSU is still just 1-3 in their last four, but they’ve played some tricky teams in that time with three of the four being road matchups.
