LSU is slightly favored over Iowa at the Elite Eight
Fans must be wondering what are the predictions for the coming Iowa vs LSU at the Elite Eight. While a lot of times the most unexpected ends up happening at basketball games, Angel Reese’s LSU is slightly favored over Caitlin Clark’s Iowa. Notably, apart from Clark, Kate Martin and Gabbie Marshall are expected to perform well and Reese has Aneesah Morrow, Flau’jae Johnson, and Mikaylah Williams on her side.
Furthermore, this prediction for Monday’s game might come as a surprise considering that Clark has been delivering the best performances of her college career this season. However, fans should be aware that overall LSU has a strong collective force that would be difficult for Clark to handle even with Martin and Marshall who are putting up impressive stats this season.
Nonetheless, anything can end up happening at the Elite Eight, and fans await to see if Iowa will be able to beat LSU or if history ends up repeating itself with the Tigers winning. The matchup is expected to be as (if not more) exciting as the last match between LSU and Iowa.
