Nothing else to do - predict the spread vs Gonzaga

[Scot-e]

Timme is gone

Was in Vegas for game and it was so satisfying to shut him down- constant hype before the game. Zags fans jawing at us that he was gonna eat our lunch. Just had to sit back and be classy it was such a beat down.

 

[JohnnyJr]

Are we playing them at MSG next year?

 

[JB75]

No way uconn is not favored. I’ll say good guys -5

 

[NYC_HUSKY22]

Should be 8, will likely open at 3.5 and move to 5.5 or so by tip.

fwiw KP has us winning by 10, with zag's "semi-home".

 

[drayenob]

line UConn -2.

We win by double digits

 

[auror]

KenPom has it UConn -2. Torvik -2. EvanMiya -4.8. Not sure Miya is considering it semi-away or away and instead just straight neutral or what.

Mojo question.

Since Gonzaga is playing MSVU, which means their key players will get minimal minutes, I've already worked on most of the preview, including the stats prior to this game (which I think are more accurate before playing a cupcake).

So, based on that, for the mojo, is it better to share today or after the game?

Did the Germans worry about mojo before they bombed Pearl Harbor?

Did McArthur worry about mojo before he waded ashore at Waikiki?

Did Kemba Walker worry about mojo when he stepped back
for his game winning shot over Mutombo and Mourning?

We're a Nike team, just do it.....

 

[Brochacho]

-1.5 UConn. Game basically comes down to Clingan so not sure how it plays out.

 

[jake14mw]

UConn -4

I would not be surprised to see a repeat of last seasons tourney matchup which was an absolute beat down.

I would be surprised to see a 30 point win over Gonzaga in Seattle.

They're not as good as they were last year but they're not nearly as bad as they looked against UW. That tourney game was just one of those nights where Timme played limited minutes and the good guys were clicking on all cylinders. I do think there's something to be said for the lack of depth issue - they outplayed Purdue in the first half and then got whooped in the second - but they're also not going to go 0-fer from 3 like they did in the second half against Washington. They're going to have a crowd behind them and they're going to be amped up by the jerseys on the other team.

I think we're better and am hoping for a win but I would be stunned if it's anything like last March.

It’s hard to beat any high D1 team as bad as we beat them in the tourney. That was a massacre

I dont mean literally a 30 point win i just wouldnt be surprised if its not a close game where the game isnt in any real doubt and they win by 15+

If you believe it helps the mojo, it helps the mojo.

If you believe it hurts the mojo, it hurts the mojo.

Only you can determine this.

UConn-5

Gonzaga missed a ton of open 3s and then Timme got his 4th. They went 2/20 from 3. They also shot 12/22 from FT line. We win if they shoot better, but that's why it was a complete laugher.

Strawther is getting rotation minutes in the NBA on the best team in the league and went 0/6 from 3 against us.

Why do I remember him playing well(strawther)?

He got a few floaters in the first half.

 

[HooperScooper]

I remember him missing a lot of shots. Including a bunch of open threes. We were laughing in the 2nd half because the entire team couldn't hit a shot.

 

[HuskyWarrior611]

Don’t know the spread but we’ll probably win by double digits.

@BigErnMcCracken not even a sweat lol
