Wagner vs UConn Prediction
UConn has the talent to blow Wagner off the map, and there’s a history under Dan Hurley of them doing just that. UConn usually doesn’t show lesser teams any mercy, as its coach is a madman. However, this is a great deal of points for a battle-tested Wagner team that has road games against Boston College and Miami under its belt. Also, this is a tough sandwich spot for UConn after playing Michigan and having Ohio State on deck.
In terms of schedule spot, it creates value with Wagner and the boatload of points. I’ll take a shot in the dark with the Seahawks and the free buckets.
