After the rugby match against DePaul this one should be more like a walk in the park, as long as UConn comes to the game focused on this match-up and not on their next opponent Creighton who is in second place behind UConn. Providence averages 60.8 points a game, with their at home Conference losses are to Georgetown, Creighton, DePaul, and Seton Hall. With a road loss at Villanova and had to go into overtime to win at Georgetown. They play @Creighton on Friday before playing UConn on Sunday.

Their highest points scored in Conference play is 77 points in the 98-77 loss at home to DePaul, and all of their losses except for Georgetown has been by double digits, to include Seton Hall which was a 20 point loss, a team UConn has beaten twice by 25 and 33 points. This game should allow Geno to get some more playing time for all of the bench players that are physically capable of playing and rest for the starters for the game at Creighton on 2/2.

Geno starts the five that started against DePaul so they get more time to gel into a solid unit and will sub with others to see what works and what needs more practice so that they are ready for the week ahead, 2/2 @Creighton, 2/4 Butler, and 2/6 Tenn at home. UConn 103 - Providence 55. All predictions and any changes must be submitted 7:30 PM Eastern. (Note: Game was moved to 7:30 PM)

Any changes submitted must state that it is a change to a previous prediction and it replaces it or the change will not be allowed. I will notify the poster of any request for change that does not meet the requirements so that it can be included. An accepted change request will be noted by a like to the request. Attached is the Prognosticators Predictions Rules and Scoring criteria. Good Luck to all you Prognosticators out there.

They should feel pretty good after the last game. Justifiably so. Just so they don't get too excited about it. I'm still not convinced that things have meshed well enough to score in the 90's. I don't see Providence scoring higher than the 50's though.

25 point MOV. UConn 84, Providence 59.

UCONN 92 - Providence 51: MOV 41 after starting with a 15-2 run, "just keep running, just keep running" is the theme for Sunday night's game.
