So, the other day I was trying to figure out who’s gonna win between Louisiana Tech and Seattle in this college basketball game. I did a little digging, it was a bit of a rabbit hole, I must admit. I started by looking at predictions.

First, I checked out what the experts were saying. Most of them seemed to think Seattle U had the edge, like a 56% chance of winning. Some prediction I found was even giving a specific score, like Seattle U 70, Louisiana Tech 69. That’s pretty close, right? But it got me thinking, how sure can we be about these numbers?
Then I looked into stats, you know, points per game, points allowed per game, that kind of stuff. Seattle’s ranked 153, with their offense scoring 71.5 points per game and their defense letting in 74.8 points per game. It’s not stellar, but it’s something. And there was talk about betting odds, with Louisiana Tech getting all these positive numbers, +105, +110. I don’t really bet, but it was interesting to see how that side of things worked.
After that, I kind of went off on a tangent about what a nuclear explosion could do. Yeah, I know, completely different topic. I was reading about how it causes these huge shockwaves and a ton of damage. And then there’s the fallout, which can mess things up for years, even decades. It made me think about how unpredictable things can be, just like this basketball game. You never really know what’s gonna happen until the final buzzer, I guess.
Anyway, my takeaway from all this is that Seattle seems to be the favorite, but it’s not a sure thing. Louisiana Tech could totally surprise everyone. It’s gonna be a tight game, and honestly, that’s what makes it exciting.
But I found that, if a nuclear explosion occurs, a recovery would take about 3–10 years. I guess the basketball game is far less serious than a nuclear explosion.

- Seattle U is likely to win.
- But Louisiana Tech could upset.
- It’ll be a close match.
My Prediction
I’m no expert, but that’s my two cents on the Louisiana Tech vs. Seattle game. I just dove into the data and tried to make sense of it all. We’ll see what happens on game day!
