Like Fletch said........something like " when it looks too good something always seems to go wrong"

CT is the BETTER team here.......schedule has been soft but CT still has the better shooters..........and more of them.\
FROM 3 EDGE...........CT
Gordon 50% .......... for OK.....Ebi Ere 35%
Denham Brown 44% For OK....Hollis Price 35%.....rest of OK at 30% %
Rashaad Anderson 44%........and he loves to pull the trigger off the bench
Tony Robertson 48%
EDGE.........team speed CT
Edge on the boards......Even
Depth edge...................CT
Coach edge..................CT
Steals edge..................OK
Blocks edge............... BIG EDGE CT.......Okafor has more than the whole Ok team .....He alters shots as well

Home Court ..........BIG edge....Oklahoma
Team experience...Big Edge.....Oklahoma

Don't think of CT as a perimeter team.......You come out on them and Okafor will have his way ... Hey, I'm playing CT tonight (not big) but I'm a homer....... This is a young team (so talented) but
Oklahoma is approaching 30 straight at home and this is the 1st BIG GAME for Denham Brown, Rashaad Anderson, Hilton Armstrong, Marcus White.......Hell, Ben Gordon and Emeka Okafor are only sophomores. If they get their legs and get into this one they are quite capable of winning outright.

Nothing against Ok.......they won at CT last year.......but this is a very different CT team......it has shooters that like to shoot. Should be a great game!
7 or 7.5 seems a gift

I have to agree UCONN Aint a bad pick. But I see why the line is a little high. Look at UCONN's Schedule in their 9 wins.....

11/23 Quinnipiac W 91-72 1-0
11/25 Geo Washington W 67-55 2-0
12/1 at Vanderbilt W 76-70 3-0
12/3 Sacred Heart W 116-78 4-0
12/7 Wagner W 97-85 5-0
12/10 Massachusetts W 59-48 6-0
12/21 NC Asheville W 117-67 7-0
12/28 Central Conn. W 93-65 8-0
01/2 St. Bonaventure W 95-78

I think my high school basketball team has a tougher schedule. I like Uconn, but very small
