This was an easy cover for LSU.
The win caps off a record season for women's basketball with viewership way up over last year.
The betting action was confirmed to be massive.
Never seen a women's basketball game get this type of action. Not WNBA, Olympics, NCAA, etc.

LSU head coach Kim Mulkey becomes the first women’s coach to win national championships at two different schools. She won three at Baylor before leaving for LSU two years ago.
“Coaches coach a lifetime and this is the fourth time I’ve been blessed,” Mulkey said. “Never in the history of LSU basketball, men or women, has (anybody) ever played for a championship.”
LSU Tigers Football Early Hot Trends
(April 2, 2023) - LSU will likely be a favorite in all of their home games this season.
Since 2018, the Tigers have gone 19-2 as a home favorite (90.5%) and 18-3 in nonconference games (85.7%).
At first glance, the closest thing we can see to being a single-digit dog versus LSU - which results in a reduced moneyline - would be Arkansas. They visit LSU in Week 4. Do keep an eye on Texas A&M at the end of the season. Using last year's season-ending power ratings, we get a line of Tigers -12. A -6 line typically translates into a moneyline price just over -200.
