Opener.

W/O Koleck makes sense but couldn't be a better spot for Marquette
 
They played Creighton close for 35 minutes, on the road, without Kolek, at a venue where we were losing big for most of the second half.

Oso is back right? The honestly may be more important for them against us. It won't be an easy game.

I don't bet on UConn games as a rule but if I did I certainly would take the points. If you asked me in November which games gave me the most agita it would have been @Creighton and the two we have left. Kolek being out doesn't change that at all for me. I'd be very, very happy if they manage to come out of there with a win tomorrow.

Losing to Marquette without Kolek would be especially disappointing, imo.

On face I agree but gotta see how game plays out. Clingan two early fouls always a game changer. The other is Marquette hits threes a 60% clip.

I‘d be more worried if we didn’t play so bad at Creighton. Our guys will be ready.

Yeah but that game was one of those weird games where some team just goes lights out from 3 and we went ice cold. That was the difference. It happens. Crayton is good but not that good. We them in MSG theyre getting wiped.
 
Danny really killed them in the video session after Creighton. They got it straightened out versus Seton Hall. We find out if the lesson took versus Marquette.

and without Iguadharo, too. That's arguably their 2 best players

I hate these small to medium lines and have no idea what to think.

I do think that Marquette +200 is probably too generous to us for the moneyline. That implies that we're about 68% to win this game.

Iggy is expected to play. Yes, his lollipop in the lane is impossible to block and we may need Samson to step up. Can't pull Cling that far out with Iggy's speed.
 
88% of the handle on the good guys

Doooooomed
 
If you're a gambler stop reading

Now that the gamblers are gone and its just us fans I've got to say this is a great opportunity to make some SMART money by taking UConn with the points. This isn't a gamble its building your retirement, its securing financial freedom for you and your loved ones down the road, its an investment, its safe. TRUST ME. Remember, has BIIIG ever steered you wrong?

This is the game we beat a ranked team on the road finally. No Kolek and Clingan is a terrible matchup for them.

hell yes, Auror. Speak it into existence my man.
 
We have their number and we're healthy but I still wouldn't give 5 on the road. Stay away.
 
Aren't the Huskies like 0-20 in their last 20 games against ranked teams on the road? The skid HAS to end sometime.
 
I used a boost and moved it to 3.5 - also did a couple lotto parlays with us winning or covering.

UConn is the better team, the home energy will make some difference but this is not a game Hurley will let them coast after Creighton.

We pull away into 5-11 range, I think.
