Butler Bulldogs vs #15 UConn Huskies. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #15 UConn Huskies. The recent problems of both clubs are evident in their different records.

 

The Huskies entered this game having lost five of their previous six contests, but they were given a break as they played Butler, a team that struggled offensively.

 

Butler also has to deal with a Huskies team that plays defense that is far better than average, which only makes things more difficult for the Bulldogs.

 

Butler only went 2-4 this season on the road, and the Huskies are sure to bounce back sooner rather than later. The Huskies will win to a predicted score of 24-17.
