UConn vs. Oklahoma Analysis
Danny Hurley likely didn’t expect his team’s march toward a third consecutive national title to happen with an “8” etched next to their name.
Given the way his team has played at time’s this season, however, that seed is completely appropriate. This UConn team has far less top-end talent than the past two and it’s shown – especially on the defensive end of the floor.
Connecticut blocks a ton of shots, the most per game in the country, yet has a tendency to get overaggressive and foul. The Huskies rank 333rd in free-throw rate allowed this season.
Enter Oklahoma, a team that loves to find its way to the charity stripe. The Sooners rank 29th nationally in free-throw rate offensively, taking 22 freebies per game and sinking them at a top-10 percentage nationally.
It feels like a sick trick played by the basketball gods, but Danny Hurley’s fate in the first round of this tournament may hinge on how the officials call this game. That’s also worth monitoring from a live betting perspective. If things are whistled tight early, that favors the Sooners.
