Stetson vs UConn Prediction
UConn is the favorite to win the NCAA Tournament for a second straight season after putting together a dominating 31-3 season.
The Huskies capped off its first Big East tournament championship since 2011 by beating Marquette, 73-57.
UConn went 11-7 ATS as a double-digit favorite this season as three of those ATS losses came when laying 30 or more points.
Stetson is making its NCAA Tournament debut after winning the Atlantic Sun title game over Austin Peay. The Hatters didn't face either of the top two teams in the conference tournament.
Stetson managed a 3-1 ATS mark as a double-digit underdog this season, but the Hatters are facing an absolute powerhouse here in the opening round.
