Florida State vs LSU prediction

Both teams had similar finishes to the regular season. Florida State ended with a 4-4 record in their last eight games, including two consecutive losses. LSU also finished 4-4 in that stretch but won three of their last four games, making it to the SEC Tournament semifinals.

Offense will be a major factor in this game, as both teams are among the highest-scoring in the country. LSU averages 85.0 points per game, while Florida State puts up 87.4 points per contest.

However, LSU’s depth on offense could be the difference. Johnson’s return from injury, combined with Aneesah Morrow’s ability to record double-doubles, gives the Tigers an advantage.
