Result:
WIN

Louisiana Tech heads to Las Vegas having lost two in a row by an average of 11 points, including allowing 96 points in a loss to Western Kentucky as a +2 dog. They have allowed over 90 points in three of the last six contests and have not played well at neutral sites. Louisiana Tech is a poor free throw shooting team, #10 in Conference USA (66.9%), and ranks #10 in three-point shooting (33%). East Tennessee State is a dog, but has won 10 of the last 12 games, an 8-4 ATS run. First-year head coach Steve Forbes has plenty to prove in this tourney, and his team has won 18 of its last 23 games. The Bucs finished with a national RPI in the mid-80s, which ranks among the Top 25 percent of Division I teams throughout the nation. Play East Tennessee State.
