Well finally we have someone else (ONO) that stepped up in a game besides Paige who actually looked more like a Freshman this game. Xavier is a team that has gone 3 and 1 with a loss to Valparaiso in its last game out. Xavier is not a 3 point shooting team they average 22% behind the arc and average 76.5 points a game. With that all being said they should not give UConn that much of a challenge this Saturday and the Huskies should win with ease. UConn 95 - Xavier 55. All predictions must be in by 12:55 PM EST or 9:55 AM PST. Attached is scoring system for the regular season. Good luck to everyone.

I’ve picked up where I left off last year, 0 for 3 so far this year, and not even close. Hope to keep things going against the Musketeers.

UConn 91 - Xavier 50

Looking at previous box scores, Xavier fouls a lot so free throws will be key to the score. 88-44 UConn.
 
I was off on my last prediction by quite a bit. I suspect the Huskies to maintain the defensive intensity they showed against Creighton. I also think the Xavier will try to run clock to limit UConn's possessions and if they foul a lot it could interfere with game flow.

UConn 79. Musketeers 50.

Looks like Coach is getting the rotations down and the team looked solid against Creighton. I am going with.

UConn: 85

Xavier: 45
 
Third game in a short period of time. Deep bench pays off today. UConn 86, Xavier 52.
P.S. The Big East doesn't look very "Big." Has any team had a player over 6'2"?

A little height for the X-women with a 6' 6" post and 6' 4" forward. Neither play much. Big scorer is a 6' 0" senior forward.

UConn 89 - X-women 52.
 
Too many X-factors (pun intended). Do we shoot well from the line? Does Xavier let us get into transition? Huskies chomp on the Musketeers
86 – 53 .
 
Don't let the record fool you - Xavier has played pretty much no one this year, and was picked 9th out of 11 teams in the preseason big east. They aren't as bad as Georgetown or Providence, but the bottom of the big east in general is pretty bad.

UCONN 91
Xavier 46
