weber is hard to bet against--they are already in the dance also--but they come to play every game and if those 3's are falling its over 1st half

Portland State plus the points for sure.

there were more uconn fans at the game when they lost at home to a terrible cincy team too. that doesn't matter today, they just are not a good team and you can't find a phantom reason to think so. uconn knows thy are headed to the nit already. good luck no play for me.

HedBustah1 · 03-09-10, 10:35 AM

UCONN has cost me as much money as any college basketball team this season, having said that, i'm probably on them lolol

Haha that's awesome.

clonecat · 03-09-10, 10:43 AM

Something tells me this is a solid pick

scwical · 03-09-10, 11:11 AM

I am on UCONN. St. Johns is not that good of a team. 3 OTs to beat a very bad depaul team is not good. Talent shines through in big time games and UCONN knows they need this game and atleast another one to make the tourney. UCONN wins by 8-10.

cadillac pete · 03-09-10, 11:22 AM

Stanley Robinson and Jerome Dyson are the two most inconsistent players in the country. You never if they are going to show up and play.

square money looks as good as sharp money, worth the same dollar for dollar too

newjerseydevils · 03-09-10, 11:40 AM

like st johns as well

iceaxe56 · 03-09-10, 12:53 PM

uconn will be up--calhoun won't go down without a fight -he benched his 3 starters so they will be fired up

doylfish · 03-09-10, 01:07 PM

UCONN will take this..will be good watching

The Silver Fox · 03-09-10, 01:24 PM

Like the under here. These rims at the garden look way too stiff. lol BOL

sportsguy04 · 03-09-10, 01:31 PM

Ever since Hardy for St. Johns went down, they havent looked the same.

Hardy - 10.5 PPG

allday1113 · 03-09-10, 01:48 PM

I would lean St. John's here. Not really sure why so many are putting a lot of stock into the DePaul game. That was a road game and this one is at home. MSG is a place where St. John's has beaten Louisville and Cincinnati, and just barely lost to Marquette in OT. UConn has played well on the road against good teams, but when they've played middle of the road teams like Providence, Michigan, South Florida, etc. they haven't played well. Take the points.

I doubt home court is gonna be a factor today, i wouldn't be surprised if the crowd is pro-Uconn

Ratatat415 · 03-09-10, 01:49 PM

stanley robinson going to be the key guy to win this for UCONN

Wilforth · 03-09-10, 01:50 PM

UConn -4 easily

The more i let the news of the Uconn stars benching sink in, the more i like it. Calhoun is a master tactician

jspectyper · 03-09-10, 01:55 PM

You guys think the under is a good play as well?

3GCOVERAGE · 03-09-10, 02:06 PM

You keep saying this is a home game for st. Johns. It is in the sense that its close to home but, there is no one at Madison Square Garden. UConn has played four games at MSG this year as well. No home court advantage today.

SOUP · 03-09-10, 02:58 PM

St John's playing very well, making very difficult shots and it looks good for us St John's backers so far!

Powderguy · 03-09-10, 03:01 PM

UConn, god awful so far, good for the under though.

sportsguy04 · 03-09-10, 03:27 PM

Uconn intensity alot higher.

mocash · 03-09-10, 03:29 PM

gota start putting the ball in the hole

sportsguy04 · 03-09-10, 03:32 PM

Could we see another St. Johns 2nd half meltdown?

Here we go Huskies.

ngates815 · 03-09-10, 03:34 PM

Whats the possibility of Uconn hitting 2 FT's in a row?

I know Gavin Edwards did early in the game. But Jesus H they are horrible at FT's.

mocash · 03-09-10, 03:34 PM

i like the energy so far wish that banked 3 didnt fall

sportsguy04 · 03-09-10, 03:37 PM

Yeah that banked 3 was a killer.

cadillac pete · 03-09-10, 03:42 PM

This game was lost in the first half......Uconn has too much to make up...only hope for a cover is ot

stealthyburrito · 03-09-10, 03:42 PM

goddamnit I shoulda stuck with my gut
