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

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.

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

 

[DaveHuskiesFan]

Line is down to 1.5, a 3 point movement from open. Likely means Bouk isnt playing so I’d be prepared for that.

 

[FatHank]

I'm hoping for an Akok presence on the court. ?

Doubt whoever sets the spread has more info than we do. That has been 1.5 for a few hours now, so it’s not just a matter of a delay in info either. Think Bouk is truly a game time decision, though seems probable from reports?

For you bettors, this seems like a good one... think the computers are overplaying the hinkle fieldhouse home advantage too much, especially with no fans.

It's been announced that Book's not playing, and there will be ~2,000 fans in the building.

It was announced Bouk is out 30 min ago and the line didn’t move, so yeah, I think vegas knew more than we did

 

[Tenspro2002]

Ugly offense, but clutch defense.

UConn 58-54 Butler

 

[JonnyRI]

Leading scorer will be Whaley with 15.

Cole, Martin, Polley all in double figures.

67-61 good guys.

 

[McLovin]

With the ML -124 I couldn’t resist betting on the good guys. Since I did this, we will probably lose. Sorry in advance.

The line did move but ok

 

[husky429]

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

Do I get a prize for being the closest?

 

[UCDaveD]

We will be the team that finishes with more points.

I am clairvoyant.

It didn’t. It was down to UConn -1.5 at 10:30am this morning. Bouknight was announced out at 2:37 PM. The line closed at -1.5, so not sure what you’re talking about.
