Predictions for Butler

[Huskyfan4evr]

Hoping Bouk plays. We could use his scoring. I feel Butler is very beatable either way. Uconn 74. Butler 62

 

[UCDaveD]

We will be the team that finishes with more points.

 

[Ts5034]

UConn by 8

 

[husky429]

Decisive win. 34-24 at the half. 71-58 final.

 

[UCLJ0211]

53-41 UConn 😂

 

[back2BE4us]

 

[Get a Job]

UConn 61
Butler 57

 

[UconnU]

Adama with 20 points tomorrow. With Bouk limited and Butlers lack of size he’s in line for a big game.

Listened to the interview with their beat reporter. Sounds like they rely on younger guards a lot. And they don't run a ton. I think we should beat a relatively slow young team. Comfortably

#thinjosh unleashes the Kraken.

 

[Ts5034]

Im also looking for a nice bounce back game from Tyrese Martin

 

[Kemba'sYogurt]

I predict Akok will play.

 

[6xChamps]

I predict Akok will play.

Same here and I’m quite confident in that — Bouknight just posted a pic on his Snapchat of him and Akok with the eyeball emoji 👀👀

 

[RayIsTheGOAT]

This would be the game to ease Akok into if that’s what they’re waiting for at this point.

[M.S.G.]

Cannot wait for 4pm, Akok Akok would make my weekend!

 

[Chin Diesel]

From reports as of last night Bouk is still nursing that elbow. I would expect only minimal Bouk today.

To counter Butler's small ball that means more minutes for Adams and Gaff at the 2 or going real small with Polley and Martin getting lots of run at the four.

Prediction?

UConn 63
Butler 51

Each team gets bumped up a dime from the championship game.

 

[UCLJ0211]

Bonus points for the use of Butler in the Butler thread.

 

[imno1]

With Bouk questionable I expect RJ to shine.

 

[Palatine]

If we can avoid the five-minute scoring drought, we sould be fine. Otherwise, watch out fingernails.

 

[Umami Zen]

71-58..Good Guys.. Surprise contributor.. Adama.. ..No need for Bouk today.. Get that Bow rested..

Status on AA for today??

 

[thatguyed]

I'm kinda surprised that the spread is only -2.5.

 

[UCLJ0211]

I'm kinda surprised that the spread is only -2.5.

There will be a crowd of about 2,000 there- the first time all season where they are playing in front of fans. Maybe they think that will give Butler more of a home court advantage? Either way, it will be interesting to see if that’s a factor in the game.

 

[HuskyHawk]

I don’t know squat about Butler. I am hoping UConn plays 40 minutes of high effort high intensity defense with corresponding effort on the boards. If we do that I like our chances. Would really like to see Akok play, and I hope Martin is better than last game.

 

[imno1]

Here’s a prediction guarantee . There will be ridiculous takes in the chat room during the game
