LSU vs. Gonzaga Key Player to Watch
- Davis Fogle, G - Gonzaga Bulldogs
Davis Fogle averaged just 16.8 minutes per game in his freshman season with the Bulldogs, but he's now expected to take over a main role with Gonzaga in his sophomore year. He's averaging 22.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 4.0 assists, and 2.0 steals through his first two games.
LSU vs. Gonzaga Prediction and Best Bet
I'm relatively low on the Gonzaga Bulldogs this season compared to the betting market. There was some significant turnover on their team a year ago, and while they've already beaten Purdue, I'm not sure about their ability to win by margin against an LSU team that's going to be extremely strong defensively this season.
The Tigers are second in the country in defensive efficiency ahead of this game, and while they have yet to face a top team like Gonzaga, they've completely dominated a few competent mid-major teams, including keeping teams like Louisiana Tech and Texas Southern to fewer than 51 points.
I'll take the points with the Tigers as road underdogs in this one.
