4* NCAAB NO DOUBT BOOKIE BEATDOWN: LSU -1

The Tigers suffered their first loss of the season in their last game, falling at Boise St 70-89. I look for LSU to be bounce back with a strong performance that will allow them to get a win on the road against UC-Irvine. LSU was able to beat UC-Irvine 66-59 last year at home and really had control of that game the whole way, as they built a 28-16 halftime lead. While UC-Irvine has played some good teams close, this is simply not a good matchup for them. The Anteaters are just 1-5 ATS in their last 6 non-conference games. BET LSU!
