These Big East foes have had a tense battle over the past few years. The Huskies and Pirates have taken turns winning their past seven games, and a road team hasn’t won since 2021 when UConn won at SHU.

Those games were played at home, but earlier this season the Huskies defeated a defensively superior Kansas Jayhawks team (No. 20 Bart Torvik) on the road (61-56). Those are promising comps.

UConn doesn’t make as many free throw attempts, but they’ve had a better percentage in that regard in two of the last three games. And the Pirates’ ability to force turnovers (a big plus for SHU in the early days) has shown some regression as of late. These trends favor the Huskies.
