The Xavier vs UConn matchup on Thursday should be a lopsided one, as we expect UConn to cover the spread as a heavy favorite. UConn does not look like it has many flaws going into postseason play. They also have a 43-point win over Xavier under their belts already this season. While the Huskies won’t win by that much in this game, they will get a win by enough to cover the number as they will glide into the Big East semifinals.
