Top Michigan vs. UConn predictions <\/h2>\n

Konarski has analyzed UConn vs. Michigan and <\/strong>is going Under on the point total (144.5).\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0The Under has prevailed more often than not for both teams this year. Michigan has seen the Under go 22-17, while UConn has seen it go 21-18. These records came with both teams full healthy, which won’t be the case on Monday. Lots of offensive firepower is banged up, including Michigan’s Yaxel Lendeborg, as well as UConn’s Solo Ball and Silas Demary, and their respective offenses could suffer as a result. <\/p>\n

The Huskies have seen the Under go 5-2 over their last seven games, and dating back to 2017, Unders sport a 6-2 record in National Championship Games. Given the injuries affecting both teams, as well as the team and title game trends, Konarski is siding with under 144.5 points. “Lean to the under with possessions coming at a premium in a slower paced game in the second half,” Konarski said.\u00a0You can see his Michigan vs. Connecticut spread picks at SportsLine<\/a>. <\/p>\n
