Game outlook

LSU is on the road playing Wake Forest at the State Farm Arena stadium on Saturday, 12/10/2022 @ 2:00pm EST. Wake Forest -0.5 was the opening favorite and line hasn't moved.

On Saturday afternoon, the LSU Tigers (7-1, 0-0 SEC) will take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (7-2, 0-1 ACC). The Tigers won 63-59 over UT Arlington as 19-point favorites. The Demon Deacons lost 77-57 to Clemson as three-point underdogs. In three games against LSU, Wake Forest is 2-1.

Tigers aim for an eighth win in nine games

On a two-game winning streak, the Tigers are off to a winning start this season. It will be their third win in a row and eighth win in their last nine games if they beat the Demon Deacons. LSU averages 72 points per game. Last game, they scored 63 points, making 41.2 percent of their field goals and 38.9 percent of their three-pointers.

Tigers KJ Williams led the team with 14 points and nine rebounds. Adam Miller had 11 points and one rebound, while Derek Fountain had eight points and six rebounds. Williams, who missed the last game with an ankle injury, is listed as probable for this one.

Demon Deacons Trying To Recover

Clemson snapped the Demon Deacons' three-game winning streak in their last game. A win over the Tigers will give them their fourth win in five games after the loss. Wake Forest averages 78.6 points per game. In their last game, they scored 57 points, making 33.9 percent of their field goals and 28.6 percent of their three-pointers.

With 12 points, Daivien Williamson led the Demon Deacons. Tyree Appleby added eight points and five rebounds, while Cameron Hildreth tallied 11 points, six rebounds, and three steals. Wake Forest has played well defensively, allowing 70.1 points per game. If they want to win, they will need to do better in their next game after giving up 77 points.

In their last nine games, the Demon Deacons have won seven. Their offense is very effective, scoring more than 75 points per game while making 47 percent of their field goals. Their offensive glass play gives them more scoring chances, and they don't turn the ball over a lot. Even though the Tigers have played well defensively, they have struggled in recent games and will have a hard time slowing down the Demon Deacons in this game. Despite their good play, the Tigers have struggled away from home, scoring fewer than 70 points per game. They don't rebound the ball as well as the Demon Deacons and they're careless with the ball, which will be a problem against the Demon Deacons. The Tigers will struggle offensively on the road against Wake Forest, so take Wake Forest to cover this spread.

LSU Highlights

With a power ranking of 123, LSU is ranked #47 in offense (scoring an average of 81.25 per game), #193 in defense (allowing an average of 69.25 points to be scored against them per game) and are 7-2 (5-4 ATS) this season.

Wake Forest Highlights

Wake Forest Demon Deacons has a power ranking of 108 and are #171 for offense (scoring an average of 73.29 per game), #45 for defense (giving up an average of 69.25 points per game) and 7-1 (3-5 ATS) overall. LSU went 1-2 (1-2 ATS) in their last 3 matchups against Wake Forest.
