Preview
The Huskies travel to Baton Rouge to take on the LSU Tigers (7-4). The Tigers have obviously had a tough time adjusting to life with out Glen Davis. Last season the Huskies beat LSU in a game where Spencer Hawes, Jon Brockman, and Quincy Pondexter carried the team and completely shut down Davis. Obviously, both teams are in a different place this year.

This game is a very big game for the Huskies. Win today and we at least salvage the non-conference schedule. As it is right now, our best quality win was against Utah (who are now 8-3). That won't be enough to make it to the tournament even if we break even in the conference. We need this win today to get some momentum heading into January.

Pomeroy Prediction
L, 79-76 [75] (38%)
Pomeroy sees a close game here, but only a 38% chance for a Husky win. We need a big game from Brockman again this year and a scorer to step up around the perimeter if we're going to pull this off.

LET'S GO HUSKIES!
