    Butler is getting major disrespect at home! They are averaging 88 ppg at home!! UConn on the road averages 63?? But their defense is nowhere as good on the road where they allow 50+% from 2 and 57% from 53% from 3????  However UConn is 7-0 both straight up and against the spread vs Butler??? Best play maybe under??? UConn is 0-2 in true road games including losing to Seton Hall

    Kenpom has the home game vs Butler lined at -12.  I don't think -6 at Butler is disrespectful in light of that.

    Certainly a line that will attract a lot of public attention to UCONN.  I may be on the Butler train too.

    Who wins the pace of play?

     

    Conn. has been above 70 possession only once on the rd. against NC

    Butler has been over 70 in all games except Georgetown.

     

    Over looks great

    Butler lost to St. John by 16, I can’t bet Butler in this game. UCONN or nada 

    The only sure thing about luck is that it will change.

    St John's was an away game for Butler.

    But yes St John's is better than SH and taller and have been playing together longer than SH.

    I played Butler ML last night when it was sitting at +6.5.  Now I hate the play bc the line inexplicably moves 2 points in 10 hours. 

    This shit is comedy.

    The total hasn’t gone above 144.5 in 10 years!! With UConn averaging 63 ppg on the road if you’re on the over you should also be on Butler because you’re expecting them to score 82???  For me it’s Butler ml and under
