Score prediction thread for Houston

[winlots]

Next up, the Houston Cougars in Scarlet and Albino - and way west of the Pee Dee.
As always, who wins it..... what is the margin of victory you predict.....and, as a tie-beaker, what is your call on the exact score?
Also, as a heads up, will intend (though I'm not always available to follow thru on these posting intentions) to comment on the post-game results right in this thread AND in my usual delayed post-game thread, with a
thread heading including "Hail to the Victors" - just to help you locate it. Though not usually many viewers of that, I value the flavor, much more than the number counted, of beans.

This could get ugly.

Too bad for Houston, Elvin Hayes (circa 1968) not eligible.

UConn 108-44. (44 in tribute to Big E.)

 

[NewCorn]

UConn 103 - 38. Geno tries to hold the score down, but Molly hits 3 threes.

Gabby would shut his butt DOWN!

99 -49 Finally every UConn player scores, winning by 50

Looking at Houston's results to date, it's hard to get a handle on them. Some games they have scored a lot but have given up a lot. Other games they have scored little and have given up little. I also suspect that Geno will continue to tweak offensive and defensive sets, letting the bench players get more minutes. This is a home game so that should probably be good for an additional 10 points for the Huskies. Mixing it all together I will go with a final score of 98 for the Huskies and 45 for Houston for a 53 point margin of victory.

Connecticut 96 Houston 41

 

[RockyMTblue2]

97-41. Sounds ridiculous, right? Massey has it 96-39.

 

[oldude]

Houston is one of the cellar-dwellers in the AAC. This will not be pretty. Huskies win 102-42.

 

[2ndCity]

UConn: 96, vs Houston: 57. (MOV: 39)

 

[ochoopsfan]

Dont forget, Houston led UConn last year, at Houston, 15-14 after the first quarter.
Of course UConn won 76-37

 

[warbler1055]

UConn 92 Houston 45. Molly hit her first 2 bakets as a UConn player (hoping).

 

[Adesmar123]

This will be a lot closer than people think. UH will be beginning their run to the NCAA's.

I have it UConn 152- 2.

 

[Vowelguy]

94-37

 

[BigBird]

UConn 98
UH 40

After a particularly gymnastic shot by Gabs, Geno gets two technicals and is ejected for inappropriate laughter. CD gets a tech for laughing at Geno.

 

[alexrgct]

In honor of what we all hope and pray would be 95 in a row, I have it 95-72 UConn. Go Huskies!
