The UConn Huskies were projected to finish second in the AAC this season, but injuries destroyed this team as Terry Larrier, Alterique Gilbert, and Mamidou Diarra are all out for the year, and Larrier, and Gilbert were major contributors. It has allowed some Huskies pups to grow up quickly, and they have now won 4 of their last 5 games. Central Florida has the giant in the middle in 7'6" center Taco Fall. Fall has been a big factor in the growth of UCF this season as he is averaging a double-double, but was shut down by Amida Brimah in the first meeting this year. Fall was held scoreless with 4 turnovers and just 4 rebounds, in a 15 point Huskies win earlier this season. UCF has lost 5 of their last 6 while the Huskies are finding some answers. Make the play on UConn.
