We don't subscribe to any one single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account a bunch of different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. The actual contestants on the field of play rarely enter into our equation when making selections, unless it's a Top 3 player like a LeBron James or Aaron Rodgers etc. One set of criteria which we almost always use when making our decisions, are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. Sometimes these stats can be overrated and other times they help foreshadow the outcome of a contest.
This particular play is based on a few different factors:
Momentum: The Huskies have won three straight, most recently an 85-67 victory over East Carolina on Sunday. Temple also comes in on a three-game win streak, but now faces a determined and hungry visiting side that is out for redemption.
Revenge: The Owls beat the Huskies 55-53 on January 5th at the XL Center in the first meeting of the season.
Smothering defensive play: UConn ranks second in the country in allowing the opposition to shoot just .368 from the field. The Huskies also rank in the top ten in free-throw percentage and scoring defense (61.4).
ATS statistics: Note that UConn is 4-2 ATS this season after scoring 80 points or more, while Temple is just 3-4 ATS off a victory vs. a conference rival.
The bottom line: Both teams are playing at a very high-level right now, but the revenge factor, combined with the nation leading defensive play and these ATS stats do indeed make the HUSKIES the savvy move in this contest.
