I'm on UConn to beat Marquette by more than 6.5 points for these reasons:

- Marquette has not won or Covered @ Uconn since 2012.

- Vs lesser caliber teams Marquette has shown struggle on the road. We seen them barely win @ Butler, @ Villanova, @ St. John's, and lose @ Seton Hall.

- I don't trust Uconn with big sspreads, but as favorites under 10 points, they are 7-2.

- This Marquette defense is shaky vs top competition on the road. Allowing 75 points on average in 5 of the last 6 road games (not going to include the whooping they gave Georgetown).

- No team has scored more than 67 points vs Uconn in XL Arena.

Official Play: Uconn -6.5

Side Bet: Under 147.5
