Take #729 UConn Over Xavier
(NCAAB) Connecticut vs. Xavier,
Point Spread: -4.50 | -108.00 Connecticut (Away)
Result: Win
The Huskies came back on Friday to post their third straight win and third in a row overall. Losing to Butler 42-35 at the half, the Huskies came back to beat Butler 88-81 at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Xavier swept the two meetings last season with the eventual 2023 national champion Huskies, including an 83-73 decision at Xavier in which Hurley picked up a late technical in a one-possession game. We like the Huskies here with revenge, as they are the better team and laying points on the road for a reason.
