Kennesaw State vs Louisiana Tech Pickswise Expert Predictions

Money Line Pick
Louisiana Tech Win(+101)

We get a pair of 20-13 teams meeting each other at Propst Arena in Huntsville, Alabama for the Conference USA Tournament final with an automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament on the line. It’s the No. 6 seed Owls facing the No. 4 seed Bulldogs, as the C-USA bracket has been a series of minefields. These teams met twice in the regular season, with the home team winning each battle, so there isn’t much to glean from that. Louisiana Tech did cover each of the meetings, including a 58-55 win in Kennesaw as a 6.5-point underdog on Feb. 21 in the most recent meeting. Kennesaw State has won three of the past four meetings outright.

Kennesaw State surprised the No. 2 seed Sam Houston on Friday, 79-73, as a 1.5-point underdog, and it won against Western Kentucky in the first tournament game on Thursday, 96-87, also as a 1.5-point underdog. That’s a stark contrast from how the Owls finished the season, as they were 3-10 ATS in the final 13 games of the regular season. Louisiana Tech has also won a pair of tournament games outright as a 1.5-point underdog, topping Middle Tennessee 80-69, and Missouri State 69-66. Unlikely Kennesaw, though, the Bulldogs have covered four in a row, and seven of the past eight games, and 13 of the past 17 games, including the two covers against the Owls.

Louisiana Tech ML (+101) at time of publishing. Playable to -110.
