We’ll receive a rematch off the 2012 National Championship game when the UConn Huskies host the Butler Bulldogs for some Big East basketball Tuesday night. UConn picked up the season sweep last year, winning by 12 both times.
UConn will be favored to win at home here.
Butler Bulldogs
Butler came out of the non-conference slate 7-4 and began Big East play with a home victory over DePaul. They took double-digits losses to ranked Seton Hall and Xavier at home, and they’ll need to avoid a bigger skid building.
Bryce Golden remains a key cog in the Butler for a third straight season. The senior from Richmond, VA has scored 17 points or more in four of his last five games, and hleads the team in scoring with 10.6 ppg, while grabbing 4.5 rpg.
Aaron Thompson is one of the most experienced guards in the country. The fifth-year starter is coming off of a season-high 25 points against Xavier, and he’s scoring 8.2 ppg, while dishing out a team-high 4.6 apg
100% or not, Bryce Nye’s presence is more than enough. The fifth-year senior does everything you’d love to see from a college basketball player, but he can not
Jayden Taylor’s freshman year has brought optimism to Indianapolis. The 6’4 guard has cracked the starting lineup, and he’s tied for team lead in scoring (10.4).
Guards Chuck Harris and Jair Bolden, last year’s leading scorers, remain in the fold, but they’ve struggled to produce since the start of Big East play.
UConn Huskies
UConn enjoyed a strong start to the season, picking up notable non-conference wins over VCU, Auburn, and St. Bonaventure. The Huskies began Big East play with a pair of wins and losses, and they picked up a home victory over St. John’s last time out.
Dan Hurley’s unit is one of highest scoring offenses (80.3 ppg), and strongest rebounding (42.1 rpg) squads in the nation.
R.J. Cole leads the team in scoring after getting off to a hot start. The 6’2 guard scored 26 points against VCU, and he’s leading the team in scoring (16.4) and assists (4.9)
Strong rebounding guards Tyrese Martin and Andre Jackson join him in the backcourt, both averaging 6.5 and 7.7 rpg respectively.
Adama Sanogo is really coming into his own this season. The 6’10 sophomore has been dominant, and he posted a remarkable 26/18 line in the win over St. John’s. Sanogo scores 15.9 ppg, while leading the team in rebounding (7.8).
Longtime Husky Isaiah Whaley remains in the fold, and the fifth-year senior is averaging 7.1 ppg and 4.9 rpg.
