UConn travels to Elmont, NY to play against St. John’s at the UBS Arena, which has a capacity of 17,000. St. John’s is 4-1 in Big East play a game behind the Huskies.

St. John’s has 5 upperclassman, 4 SR's and 1 JR, with 3 SO’s and 4 FR’s, so they do have somewhat of an experienced team.

Jillian Archer F 6’2” SR averages 30.1 mins, 10.6 pts, 7.3 rbds and 1.6 blks, Ber’Nyah Mayo G 5’6” SR averages 30.1 min, 9.3 pts, 3.4 ast and 2.8 rbds.

  • If someone believes that they have been missed, or someone notices that another fellow Prognosticator has been missed by the gamekeeper, then it must be brought to the gamekeeper's attention within 24 hours of the posting of the winner(s) game thread.
  • I don’t see UConn having any problems with the Red Storm, they will wear them down by the end of the 3rd qtr and get another conference win. UConn 92St. John’s 57.

St. Johns beat us last year, and Drake will be difficult to contain. But I think we continue our hot streak. UConn by 75-60.
 
St Johns will not be able to score enough ! Their ceiling against good teams is mid 50's.
UConn 84-55

SJ really struggled over the first 10 games or so. But they’ve won their last 3 including an upset over Marquette. The Huskies should role.

UConn 86 - SJ 56
 
Another team that matches up perfectly to UConn and this will be another blowout win. I loved seeing Geno play Ines and Amari meaningful minutes last night and I hope that continues.

UConn 88
St Johns 52

Taking the easy way out using Massey's numbers UConn 75 - SJ 54. I must say I don't get Massey on this game.
