UNC Wilmington Seahawks vs. UConn Huskies Best Picks and Prediction

There is a reason why the Huskies are undefeated and ranked while the Seahawks are not. UConn has the better overall talent throughout their roster and has been able to showcase it. Sanogo should dominate and also be able to limit what White is going to be able to do offensively. The UConn Huskies should easily win by 20+ points in their own building here.
