A game that is getting so much hype on social media that I had to preview and bet it! I will not watch a second of this game, or any women's basketball game for that matter, but I will bet it! The increased hype for this game is too good to pass up on a huge betting opportunity in my opinion!
Preview:
SC -7.5, total: 150.5
Let's get the obvious out of the way. LSU being a 7.5-pt underdog (opened at 9.5) is pretty crazy, especially for a team that has a 29 game home winning streak. Also, I can't forget to mention that LSU is the reigning National Champion.
But lets not overlook South Carolina, and remember there is always a reason for a line. South Carolina is the only remaining undefeated team in the country. As impressive as LSU's home win streak, what is even more impressive in South Carolina's SEC record 27 straight road wins.
South Carolina demolished LSU last year at home 88-64. Funny enough, the rankings were identical to what they are tonight. Two years ago, the rankings were once against the same. #1 SC @ #9 LSU. SC won that game at LSU 66-60.
South Carolina has only had two games withing 10 points this year. Both of those teams were ranked (65-58 @ #24 UNC, and 69-78 vs #11 Utah).
LSU has two losses on the year. They lost their season opener to #20 Colorado by 14 points, and then lost at unranked Auburn.
Prediction and Bets:
LSU is going to get up for this game at home. Tickets are already at a record high, and LSU obviously plays phenomenal at home. Everyone knows this, and everyone seems to be on LSU in this game.
You might not find a bigger critic of LSU's Women's Basketball team than me. I really don't like this team, their flashy thrift store attire coach, and their very good yet unbearable superstar Angel Reese.
With the public being all over LSU, and South Carolina still being a substantial favorite (wish line stayed at 9.5), I have to take the Gamecocks to stay undefeated on the road.
SC -7.5
As always, one bet is never enough. I am looking to get risky with this play, so if you don't have what it takes, then stop reading now!
I really just think South Carolina is going to dominate this game. It's not really a revenge game, but they have a chance to knockoff the defending national champs (a championship that everyone thought South Carolina would walk away with).
With this motivation, and the opportunity to beat a overhyped team in the biggest atmosphere of the year, South Carolina will roll. So I like them to go over in their team's point projection. I also like this game total to go under, because I just can't see LSU keeping it competitive and scoring enough to hit the over. Again this is risky and what is called threading the needle!
