NCAAB: Manhattan @ UCONN (-20, O/U 135)

Manhattan’s 4-game losing streak unlikely to end at 8 tonight. ESPN Extra or DTV789

Howard Gensler

The 7-3 Huskies have enjoyed putting up big numbers at home against weaker opponents. The 2-7 Jaspers will try to slow them down but they couldn’t stop Hofstra from putting up 80, so Connecticut could put up 90. We’ll take UCONN -20 and the over 135 and hope for a game in the 85-55 range.

RESULT

61-46 UCONN. Yikes, talk about not playing to form. Well, Manhattan played to form - they couldn’t score. The problem is neither did Connecticut. The Huskies had been averaging over 90 points per game in their six home wins this season, But here we got a low possession game and Connecticut shot 4-23 from three.
