Game outlook

Stephen F. Austin is on the road playing Louisiana Tech at the Thomas Assembly Center stadium on Wednesday, 12/14/2022 @ 7:00pm EST. Louisiana Tech -5 was the opening favorite and line hasn't moved.

On ESPN this Wednesday, the Stephen F. Austin Lumberjacks will take on the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs in non-conference action at the Thomas Center in Ruston.

North Western State will strive to find winning strategies

After losing to Northwestern State at home, S.F. Austin is 5-4. After a shootout between the Lumberjacks and Demons, the visitors won by six points. It scores 79.2 points per game, allows 66.1 points per game, and shoots 48.1% from the field.

Once again, the Lumberjacks are led by their guard play in the backcourt. In the win over Paul Quinn, Sadaidriene Hall led the team with 13.2 points per game. Former KU transfer Latrell Josell (12.6 ppg) returned in Sunday's win, and Nigel Hawkins took his place. At 12.1 points per game, the senior guard ranks third on the team in scoring after scoring 25 points against South Dakota State. In addition to leading the team in minutes and rebounding (5.6), Nana Antwi-Boasiako scores 9.3 points per game.

The start to Louisiana Tech's season has been average

Cobe Williams has made significant strides in year four. In addition to 26 points against ULL and 25 points against Samford, the senior guard leads La Tech in scoring (17.4) and assists (3.4). Keaston Willis averages 12.8 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. With a 5-2 over/under record, SFA is 3-4 against the spread this season. This year, LT is 4-3 ATS and 4-3 O/U.

After losing to Wyoming over the weekend, Louisiana Tech dropped to 6-3. After falling behind by 20 points at halftime, the Bulldogs lost their biggest game of the season by 20 points. LT scored 76.6 points per game, while allowing 69.6 points per game and shooting 46.2% from the floor.

Historically, SFA has been one of the most competitive mid majors in these spots. The return home will certainly give Louisiana Tech some life after their disappointing performance against Wyoming. I'd love to see the Bulldogs bounce back at home, but the magic number is a bit high. For this non-conference matchup in the south, take the under. With a 42.9 field goal percentage and 10 of 27 (37% from 3-point range), the Bulldogs lost to Wyoming. Despite being outrebounded 34-28, LA Tech committed 11 turnovers. LA Tech had scored 74 points or more in six consecutive games before the Wyoming loss, and they expect to bounce back and win.

Stephen F. Austin Highlights

With a power ranking of 212, Stephen F. Austin is ranked #111 in offense (scoring an average of 76.25 per game), #198 in defense (allowing an average of 69.38 points to be scored against them per game) and are 5-4 (3-4 ATS) this season.

Louisiana Tech Highlights

Louisiana Tech Bulldogs has a power ranking of 159 and are #104 for offense (scoring an average of 76.56 per game), #207 for defense (giving up an average of 69.38 points per game) and 6-3 (4-3 ATS) overall. Stephen F. Austin went 1-1 (1-0 ATS) in their last 3 matchups against Louisiana Tech.
