Uconn getting +1 @ Marquette

[coitus_maximus]

I'm thinking Marquette here -1. I think the public is going to jump huge
on Uconn +1. Marquette is a very difficult gym to win in and not sure if Uconn can do it without Dyson.

Any comments?

Marq -1; Good team (i.e. not Georgetown) at home with public money on the away team. Trap game that doesn't seem like one.

very tough game to call. Marquette is a legit team and a dangerous team at home. It's all a matter of whether their draining the outside shots because UCONN has a clear advantage on the inside but with Dyson out you could say Marquette has a big advantage on the perimeter.
IF the shots are failling for Marquette then they can limit the advantage that Uconn has inside.
It's definitely a sharp line and I'd be suprised if either team runs away with it, I expect a close and contested game.

I'm taking UCONN +1 here. Too much size inside. Way too much size for Marq to deal with. Sure, if Marq is bombing...and hitting...from beyond the arc they CAN win at HOME. But, my money is on the inside game of UCONN.

Marquette has too many guards for uconn to deal with.

The big man from from Marquette will draw thabeet away from the basket due to his shooting ability.

Really like Marquette here.
