The Arkansas Razorbacks, currently projected as a top-4 seed, head to Louisiana to take on the LSU Tigers, who find themselves firmly on the NCAA Tournament bubble. With a 14-9 overall record and a 2-8 conference mark, LSU desperately needs a marquee win to bolster their tournament resume. A Quad 1 victory over Arkansas would significantly boost their chances, considering their current 1-6 record against Quad 1 opponents. The Razorbacks, on the other hand, boast a 5-6 Quad 1 record and are looking to build momentum as the tournament approaches.

According to the CHD Scout prediction, Arkansas is narrowly favored to win by 0.4 points, with LSU holding a 48.5% win probability. This tight margin reflects the competitive nature of this matchup, as both teams have shown flashes of brilliance this season. LSU's recent form has been inconsistent, with a loss-win-loss record in their last three games, while Arkansas has gone win-loss-win. Unfortunately, there's no notable player momentum to speak of, so it's likely to come down to which team can execute their game plan more effectively.
