a) Take this with a grain of salt, I am a die hard UConn homer.
b) This UConn team is really starting to look like the Napier/Boatright team of 2014 that did not really have that spectacular regular season and then went on a magic carpet ride.
c) Kevin Ollie is 7 and 0 (as in never lost a NCAA tourney game) and has to be considered a big time NCAA coach in one and done high pressure cooker games.
d) It's an underdog tournament (so far) might as well keep riding the bow-wows.
I mean, nothing really makes sense this entire weekend, why the hell not ride the Huskies one more time.
e) Did I mention I'm a Husky homer?
Seriously now, if I wasn't a Husky homer I'd still think 7.5 is a generous spot here.
UConn +7.5 2* nothing big, but there is (uh-oh, here comes the 'v' word) there is value here.
I am a Uconn homer as well. Huskies never get the credit they deserve. This is when they win championships though. This team actually reminds me of 2011 team that won it. I actually took them moneyline. If they win this they win the tournament.
