Yes, we are at home

Ken Pom still says we win.

RPI Forecast says we win.

Haven't seen the line yet, anyone know?

[Eye]

Line won't be out until about 10 p.m. CST tonight.

Vegas Insider has us a 4 point favorite. They had us by 20 over DePaul and we won by 30. They had ND over us by3.5

Hard to believe that we are giving 4 to UConn.

UConn hammered at Pitt and lost at ND.

MU beat WV at home and hammered ND at home.

Pomeroy projects MU to win the game by 3 FWIW.

All of that makes sense, but public isn't going to put that much thought in to it.  I think this line swings.

[Eye]

Don't disagree with that. Public likes teams with single numbers next to their names getting points.

[MuMark]

UCONN also won at Texas. I'm not saying we can't win or won't but I have a hard time seeing MU as a favorite against this UCONN team just because we are at home.

They have played good to very good D this year and are great on the offensive boards.

We better shoot it well.

Do I remember correctly that Calhoun never plays zone?

[Mr. Nielsen]

There are still tickets for #5 Uconn on Tuesday night.

UCONN beat Texas in Connecticut not on the road

If you are talking about this season. UCONN won in Austin, Tx.

[GoPanthers33]

We NEED this one or the Syracuse game!

Personally I'd rather just take this one and then spend a few days thinking about taking both 

[bobnoxious]

Brain fart, had them confused with Tennesse

[Warriors4ever]

Back to the original point - why does it still say @ Connecticut?  Do I have to catch a quick flight?

[PGsHeroes32]

Do what we always do and attack the hoop. They are not super deep by any means. Get Oriakhi and any other bigs in foul trouble much like we need Louisvilles(SMH) and we should be just fine and win this game.

Being at home is our 1 advantage this week against two very good teams, free throws on both ends is the other one. Big advantages to have.

Walker takes up 32% of the possessions and 34% of the shots.  Starts and ends with him.  Very good assist % and low turnover rate.  Got to run various guys at him to tire him out.  He will still get his, but that is the only way to slow him done is to try to contain him.  UT did a relatively good job on him in the 1st half, but then he came out a house of fire in the 2nd.  Has to be POY as he is the total package and UCONN is .500 without him at best. Cannot let him get to the hoop as he scores or creates for others.  Contain, contain, contain.
