SuperBook Has Super Matchups In College Hoops!
Tuesday, December 05th 2006 (Bob Acton)

Now that we have a brief moment to catch our breath from the incredible action that the NFL delivered us this past week, we can focus on some great college hoops action that will be played Tuesday night. First stop is the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Baton Rouge, Louisiana where we have a rematch of a classic tilt that was played this past year in the second round of March Madness.

www.SuperBook.com is the online sports book for bettors in America and they will take us as usual all the way to the Final Four in 2007.The particular game features the first top-10 showdown at the PMAC since Jan. 7, 1984, but this battle comes with a little more window dressing that that.

In March, the Texas A&M Aggies and the LSU Tigers staged a memorable war of defensive wills in the second round of the NCAA tournament. LSU escaped when Darrel Mitchell buried a clutch 3-pointer with 3.9 seconds to go and the Tigers made a 58-57 lead hold up with a gritty defensive stand on the final possession.

With four starters back, the Aggies might be even better on defense this year. Through seven games, A&M leads the nation in scoring defense (48.9 points allowed per game) and field-goal defense (30.7 percent).

LSU’s sensational center Glen Davis will go head-to-head with Aggie center Joseph Jones, who at 6-foot-9 and 250 pounds is closer in stature than a lot of foes Davis squares off with. Jones logged a season-high 24 points in A&M’s 74-62 triumph against Pacific on Saturday and is likely champing at the bit for redemption after he finished with only six points and four rebounds against Davis and the Tigers last year.

SuperBook has this game listed at LSU -2 ½ and the over/under at 123!

In Pullman, Washington they will be a standing room only crowd when the Zags of Gonzaga take on the 7-1 Washington State Cougars. Gonzaga just beat Texas and is favored in this tilt by -3 ½ total 131.

Huge grudge match in Las Cruces, New Mexico when the Lobos of New Mexico tangle with in-state rival New Mexico State. Home side is –2 ½ and the total is a very high 155. At the Carrier Dome in Syracuse the Orangemen will look to bounce back from a shocking loss to Wichita State, when they the 9-0 Oklahoma State Cowboys. The Cuse are – 3 ½ and the total presently sits at 138.5.
