Predictions?

without the pressure of playing a big-name team, LU comes out confident and wins by a dozen

Here's my quick scounting report:

Ohio is not a big team and they go about 8 deep.  They are a good 3-point shooting team, but are not that good rebounding.  Lamar is almost the opposite: a good rebounding team but not good shooting 3s.  They play up-tempo like Lamar and don't turn the ball over much, and they are better offensively than Lamar at this point. 

I think the game will depend on how hot Ohio is from outside.  If they keeping nailing 3-pointers the whole game then Lamar will probably lose.  If Lamar can shoot a decent percentage and dominate the boards then Lamar can win.  I guess it also depends on how much of a hangover Lamar has from Kentucky game.

Since I'm always the optimist, LU wins 75-69.

Tough game....

Need this quality win........will we get it?????

[UNLV]

Not big?  The whole team is 6' and bigger with 2 guys 6'10 and 6'11...

Lamar must exploit the quickness against them....Run run run Lamar.

They will be looking past Lamar at their Sunday match-up with Louisville.

Again, run run run.....
