Overview of the Huskies
The Huskies earned a 77-73 win over the defending champion Florida on Tuesday at Madison Square Garden and now square up in against another marquee program, albeit, back at home this time.
This is UConn’s fourth high profile game over the past 14 days, and the first three were all either on the road or at neutral sites. With Big East play around the bend, we could see a potential flat spot in this matchup.
How the Longhorns Stack up

There are a lot of questions circling this iteration of Texas and early indication are Sean Miller will have his work cut of for him in what may well be a transition year, as he settles into the role.
