Here are the latest trends for this game:

My Prediction: I don't think it's any surprise that the UCONN Huskies are playing for another championship this year. They took the Maui Invitational back in November and the Big East title last month. Now they play for the biggest of them all. They face a team in Butler who I'm amazed is playing for another shot at the title in 2 years. This Butler team will just not go away. You would think when they lost their best player last year that they would struggle, but with a great coach and some blue-collar players, they have a great shot at winning. As long as Matt Howard stays out of foul trouble, which he has so far, the Bulldogs will keep this one close and pull it out in the end.

Butler +3.5
