UConn vs Michigan computer projections

UConn is favored by 7.5 points over Michigan, but our computer projections have the Huskies winning 74.93-68.21, a 6.72-point margin that falls just short of covering the spread. That makes Michigan +7.5 the lean, with the Wolverines projected to keep this championship rematch within a couple of possessions.

The projected final adds up to 143.14 combined points, falling 1.36 points below the 144.5 total. That makes the Under a slight lean, though the gap is narrow enough to keep it from being a strong play.

UConn's team total is projected to stay Under 76.5, as its 74.93-point projection falls short by 1.57 points. Michigan's team total is also projected for Under 68.5, with its 68.21-point projection just below the number. Neither team total offers much separation from the projected score.
