Point Spread: 4.00 | -106.00 Saint Mary's-California (Away)
Result: Loss
10* Saint Mary's (TOP DOG SHOCKER)

Saint Mary's is battle-tested. So is UConn. The Gaels' defense is ranked 12th, with an adjusted efficiency margin of +21.94.

The Gaels limit teams to just 91.3 points per 100 possessions. They are averaging 71.1 PPG as well, so I expect them to keep pace with a Huskies side averaging 78.7 PPG.

This will be one of the Huskies most difficult defenses they've faced all year and in a contest that I see being decided by whichever team has it's hands on the ball last, I'm grabbing the points.

The play is SAINT MARY'S.

Good luck, NP
