UCon is off an embarrassing loss to Seton Hall on the road the other night so being at home means they will be comfortable in this spot. This is a smash spot for this team as they regroup and get that win back. St. John's is not strong enough to stay in this game and they will fall off in the second half despite coming into this game off of two home wins. This is a revenge spot for the Huskies too as they lost last season to St.John's.

UCon is 17-7 ATS versus very good teams - outscoring their opponents by 8+ points/game over the last 2 seasons. UConn is 7-3 against the spread and 10-0 overall when scoring more than 69.1 points. UCon is 14-4 ATS after having won 6 or 7 of their last 8 games over the last 2 seasons. St.John's is 0-1 ATS this season and 6-10 ATS in the last three seasons after playing 2 consecutive home games.

Best bet: lay the points with Connecticut.
