Latech also had the better coach.
My opinion is La Tech opened the league race up last night with that win. UTEP was going to be difficult if they gained a split with La Tech as they play ODU just once and at home. Now four or five teams realistically have a shot at this thing.
ODU gets La Tech once, in Norfolk.

Why is LA Tech having to play ODU on the road 2 years in a row? LA Tech won 71-66 in Norfolk last year.

Bad La Luck?
ODU got a bad draw as well...Second straight season with a three game road trip to open the season. Another season of the dreaded UAB/MT back to back road swing. One game with UTEP, on the road.

I think just about every team is having to repeat a road stint due to the change in travel partners. ODU has to go back to UAB and MTU without a return game again.

Tech opens the conference slate with 3 road games also - against 2 top 4 teams from last year in UTEP and USM.
Definitely a big game coming up with the Hilltoppers today. It shapes up as a classic match with no clear-cut favorite. I'm hoping to see the Monarchs come home with a 3-0 road trip and a tighter grasp on our #25 ranking, but, boy, who is going to win this one is anybody's guess.

Keep them from starting 7/7 from 3 on you and you should cruise.
They have talent but they're an awful rebounding team. Odu should have an opportunity for a lot more possessions than wku.

The rebound margin was nuts in the game against you guys! But it was not the norm, we are normally a decent rebounding team. 69th nationally and 49ers was 109th And ODU is 59th. We had a weird game all around

Close game in San Antonio. UTSA vs Louisiana Tech

.
Awful rebounding team based on one game?
61st in rebounds per game and 121st in offense rebounds per game out of 351 D1 teams is not exactly awful.
I love this UTSA announcer. You'd think Tech never bounces the ball as much as he says we travel.
UAB defeats FIU 70-53 , quietly 3-0 in CUSA after a terrible OOC start.
Freshman Nick Norton with 11 points, freshman Chris Cokley with 12 points, Junior Robert Brown with 12 points. The next four highest UAB scorers were also freshmen or sophomores.
