Duke vs. Connecticut

The UConn Huskies are defending National Champions, and I think that has done a lot to hold this line in check. The fact is that UConn was ranked to begin the season, and has fallen out because they simply are not that good. This team struggles to knock down shots, and the first sign of trouble was their 8-point win vs. Southern CT, and a 9-point win vs. Assumption in the their two exhibition games. The Huskies also suffered a loss to Yale at home. This looked to be a big time matchup prior to the season, but UConn is just average. Duke comes in a perfect 9-0 and no team has come within 10 points of them including Stanford, Michigan State, and Wisconsin. Okafor will dominate Brimah and get him in foul trouble, and the Huskies have no answers for all the talent that Duke has, especially at guard where UConn usually holds the edge, but not in this one. Make the play on Duke.
