We are a much better team than Seton Hall.
Play hard, play smart, And we win.

I've seen UConn -1.5 and the opposite, Seton Hall -1.5. Most sites have UConn as slight favorite.
I also like to look at Sagarin. Using the daily rating, UConn would be about 1.5 favorites. But Sagarin also has a recent rating which weighs the recent games more heavily. Using that UConn is 7.0 favorites.

Anyone else notice that this week's lines are incredibly aligned with KenPom's projections?
Real hard reads for games this time of the year, but banked on Dayton (+8.5) over St. Bonaventure with knowing that they clinched the #1 seed in the A-10 bracket and has less motivation to win the game. I haven't found anything worth biting on yesterday or today that I felt super confident on, however I'd expect UConn to win, obviously.

Me too!. I just wish Providence vs St. John's was yesterday or tomorrow. I hate that this game is overlapping with UConn vs Seton Hall. In the AAC, I had very little to no interest in non-UConn games unlike the Old Big East and the current Big East.
As interested as I am in the other two non-UConn games, we all know the UConn game is #1 priority as everything revolves around UConn?

I'm a fan of Jim Jackson. He doesn't do anything particularly note worthy. I guess I just like his style. Hopefully that doesn't sound like i have a big man-crush. It's not like that.
Casey Jacobsen as well. Enjoying the entire FS1 crew

from Seth Davis in The Athletic today:
UConn at Seton Hall (-1½), 6:30 p.m., FS1. UConn has won three of four since 6-5 sophomore guard James Bouknight returned from his elbow injury, and while we know the selection committee will give the Huskies the benefit of the doubt for the losses they incurred without him, they cannot afford to lose many more. The same goes for Seton Hall which is slipping down the bubble following losses at Georgetown and Butler. If it’s a defensive battle, the edge will go to UConn, which leads the Big East in scoring defense (64.6) and blocks (5.4), while the Pirates rank seventh in the league in field goal defense (43.3) and are last in 3-point D (36.6). In normal times I’d go with the home team, but in a mostly empty Prudential Arena I’ll take the better one. The pick: UConn

Just need to limit the fouling. I know it’s been said for months on here but it’s getting to crunch time. Mostly the ticky tack fouls on the perimeter.

The refs share some blame in the foul calls. But as a team were incredibly dumb on defense. We have a tendency of being over aggressive when it doesnt call for it. Like reaching in 45 feet from the basket is something we do religiously

It's the dumb fouls that get us in trouble. Big guys pushing ball handlers 35 feet from the basket, moving screens, grabbing guys, these are all avoidable but we get a number of them every game.
