This is a fun game between two teams that nobody had expected much out of in November when the season started.

UConn plays in the Big East. Yeah, right. I’m shaking in my boots. Not.Â
UConn has won their three tournament games by an average of 20.7 points per contest while limiting their opponents to under 40 percent shooting from the field. It should also be noted that UConn is allowing just 61 points per contest in the tournament. Taking that into a consideration, points may be a premium in this matchup.

You can pair two games per window, or pair regional games to create a winning bet. Given how most people’s brackets have turned out, pairing games from the same region might not be the way to go, so time slots look like the better choice here.
