Game: Michigan State vs. Connecticut (6:05 PM Eastern)
Pick: Connecticut -4 (-110)

The Huskies and the Spartans will open Final Four action this evening. The Huskies have two reasons why they are 31-4, and why they are in the Final Four. In their four tournament games, the Huskies are out rebounding opponents by an unimaginable 17 per game, and at the same time are getting to the line 20 times more per game. Those are going to be huge hurdles for the Spartans to get over. The Huskies also have an answer for everything. The four games have seen four different leading scorers in Price, Walker, Austrie and Robinson. Robinson has been the X-factor for the Huskies with his play over the past month, as he has become a scorer, tenacious rebounder, and shot blocker. Michigan St. just doesn't have all the answers the Huskies do and right now, UConn looks to be peaking at the right time. UConn gets the call.
