Congratulations to High Point for earning their first NCAA Dance. Now Condolences to High Point for having to play UConn, sorry @triaddukefan you know that this is not going to go well for your PANTHERS. Even with both Geno and Shea sitting (at least) the first two games out there is no chance in HECK that UConn doesn't make it to the Sweet 16. I don't what the Panthers will do, if they play an up tempo game UConn could end up with 125 to 140 points, if they slow it down UConn still scores at least 85 to 95 points. The MOST I see High Point scoring is 65 in an up tempo and 40 in a slow down. I believe when it's all said and done it will be UConn 124 - High Point 43. All Prognostications must be submitted NLT 7:45 PM EST or 4:45 PM PST. Good luck to all you Prognosticators out there and the Rules and Scoring criteria is attached.

My $.02 - know zero about HP except they like to launch 3's and usually hit 7-10 per game. I suspect they will attempt about 30-35 3's since we will have a big size advantage inside, and doubt they hit more than 6-7. i'm not sure if they will want to run or not, like St. Francis tried when we beat them 140-50 or something, so i'm going to predict a lower scoring game.

BTW in the Sf Francis game, no starter played more than 24 minutes except Nurse, and every player for UCONN played at least 10 minutes including the end of the bench players...

UCONN 110
HP 38

Highpoint is happy just to be in the big dance. Uconn is on a mission - #12.

UConn 97 - Highpoint 40.

UConn 93 - HP 34, I think CD will play the bench more to give them a taste of the tournament.
 
While this will not be the high point in their tournament UConn will prevail.
UConn 93-37

94-26
or
84-29
UConn the winner in either.
I just can't decide ... the spirits aren't communicating well today.

UConn had 55 points end of the first quarter and St Francis had 52 for the game. UConn also had 38 assist and 6 players in double figures at halftime with 95 points. St.Francis took 57 3 pt. attempts.

According to the rules the first score is the one that is entered into the game prognostications.
 
Autumn can serve as player-head/coach, play the entire first half at the point, and UConn will win by 50!
