This is going to be a tough Big East battle, which often means a dynamite defensive display. Notre Dame has been on a strong run defensively allowing 49, 67, 65, 58 and 42 points the last five games - all UNDER the total. In fact, they are on a 9-1 run UNDER the total. The offense, though, shoots just .432% from the field. The UNDER is 25-4-1 in the Fighting Irish's last 30 games as an underdog and 16-6-1 UNDER the total in their last 23 road games. Defending champion UConn knows something about defense, as well, and will lean on it at home after a two-game losing streak. These teams just met January 14, and the game finished UNDER in a 67-53 UConn win at Notre Dame as the Irish shot just 32%. Both team's perimeter defense was sensational, with UConn 2-of-12 from long range, Notre Dame 6-of-26. The UNDER is 11-4 in the Huskies’ last 15 home games and 35-16-1 UNDER the total in their last 52 games as a favorite. Play UNDER the total.

Pro Picks
Notre Dame at Connecticut
These teams have both lived above expectations on the season, and Notre Dame will be taking a pair of byes when the Big East tournament begins next week. Uconn will be trying to jockey themselves into a single bye. The Huskies seem to save their best vs the best, and have come up big all seasdon when least expected, asnd with a lot on the line here I expect Kemba and Co. to bring the "A" game for this one. Irish just 1-6 ATS on the road vs a team with a winning home record last seven. I look for Uconn, who seemsd to be coming down the wire in a lot of games, to prevail on the moneyline.
