Connecticut at Louisville

The UConn Huskies were picked to finish No. 10 in the big East, but they are riding very close to the top 10 in the country. They have surprised with the improved play of Kemba Walker, as well as a host of freshmen that have paid immediate dividends. The Huskies now have another fast-emerging weapon in Coombs-McDaniel, the former prep Player of the Year has seen the light. Averaging less than 5 points per game, McDanilel is suddenly averaging 24.5 ppg in his last two. Louisville has won three Big East games by a single point, and could be 5-8 instead of 8-5, with one of those against UConn. The Huskies are playing with energy again after a few lackluster games, and has what it takes to exact revenge here. I like UConn on the moneyline.
