Louisville

The Cardinals believe they are at their best when challenged by elite competition, and that's exactly what they'll get when the Huskies come to town. UConn is a perfect 10-0 away from home this season and 4-2 all-time vs. Louisville. The Cardinals did not handle a 20-point halftime lead well against West Virginia on Saturday, settling for an eventual 69-63 victory. “We fall in love with ourselves too much,” Louisville head coach Rick Pitino said. “In the long run, it’s probably better we had a war down the stretch.” They'll get that war tonight Pitino will have his boys ready

Predicted score 73

Louisville is 7-1 ATS in its last 8 games overall
The OVER is 3-1 in Louisville's last 4 games overall.

The Huskies are expected to be the new #1 team in the country by the time this game tips off, but that isn't necessarily a good thing. There have been three different #1 teams in the last three weeks, and the last two lost in their very next games. In fact, Pitt was also #1 before leaving Louisville with its first loss back on January 17th. “You don’t want to be No. 1 for a day,” UConn head coach Jim Calhoun said. “It’s just a number that goes by quickly. But if there are 343 teams playing in the country and at some point in the season, especially 21 games into the season - it’s nice. No more. No less.”

Predicted score 69

UConn is 8-3-1 ATS in its last 12 Monday games.
