First time I saw the line, I was considering the home dog. However, after research, I realized that UConn should definitely be the favorite in this one as they match up very well with Providence. The key in my opinion will be if Providence can hit the long ball tonight. If they can't, then UConn should have no problem under the basket. If they can, then UConn may have to spread their defense and give Providence room to penetrate and create easy shoot opportunities.
My feeling is they won't have much success hitting the three tonight as UConn defends it extremely well.
