DePaul vs UConn Prediction

I don’t want to lay this sort of number with the UConn Huskies, as they’ve been shaky since the injury to McNeeley. UConn has also failed to cover seven of its last nine games. However, the DePaul Blue Demons aren’t scaring anybody with that defense, and UConn already beat them by 13 points on New Year’s Day. UConn has won and covered each of the last five games against DePaul. Also, while UConn has covered issues recently, DePaul is 2-7-1 ATS in its last 10 games. There’s just a clear talent gap and there’s no real reason to even think siding with DePaul. Thick number, but this game shouldn’t be close. I’ll lay the points with UConn at home.
