50 Dime UConn
There’s no way I’m making the mistake again of stepping in front of the freight train that is UConn. With my free play on Thursday, I faded the Huskies under the premise that they were in a significant letdown situation after their five-wins-in-five-days run to the Big East tournament title. Letdown, shmet-down. All UConn did was come out and smoke a decent Bucknell team – one that had won 10 in a row and 23 of 25 – by a score of 81-52, covering easily as a 10-point chalk.
That’s now six straight wins and covers for Jim Calhoun’s squad, and those victories have come in a variety of ways: three blowouts over DePaul (by 26), Georgetown (by 17) and Bucknell (by 31), and three nail-biters over Pitt, Syracuse and Louisville by a total of 10 points. Kemba Walker (18 points, 12 assists, 8 rebounds vs. Bucknell) continues to show why he’s a player of the year candidate, averaging 25.5 ppg over the last eight contests. But Walker is hardly a one-man show. In fact, he was one of three players to score in double figures against Bucknell, and that doesn’t include Alex Oriakhi’s sensational 9-point, 12-rebound performance, as UConn owned the boards 43-21.
The Huskies not only have outrebounded all six opponents during their winning streak, but they’ve done so by a combined 219-158 margin – we’re talking plus-61 on the glass and an average of 36.5 rebounds in six games! To put that stat into perspective, note that Cincinnati is on a solid 7-2 SU and ATS run itself, but it is only plus-28 on the boards, averaging just 30.8 rebounds per game.
Back to Walker: When these teams met back on Feb. 27 at Cincinnati, he had a very average game (16 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists). And yet the Huskies still rolled 67-59 as a 3½-point road underdog – one of Cincy’s two losses during its 9-2 ATS – and with that win the Huskies improved to 5-2 SU and ATS in seven series meetings since the Bearcats joined the Big East in 2005-06.
Finally, while Cincinnati hammered Missouri 78-63 as a one-point chalk in Thursday’s tourney opener – and Missouri was wildly overrated, a team that doesn’t play any defense – the Bearcats are still just 2-5 ATS in their last seven Big Dance games. Conversely, the Huskies have now cashed in five of their last six Tournament outings. They’re also a stellar 17-5 ATS in their last 22 neutral-site games (in fact, they’re a perfect 9-0 SU and ATS on neutral courts this year, winning by an average of 11.7 ppg!).
Throw in the fact that UConn is red-hot from the free-throw line right now (82.1 percent) and way above average from the charity stripe in its nine neutral-site wins this year (79.7 percent), and I’m all over the hottest team in the country.
