Wagner vs UConn College Basketball Preview
Wagner Basketball
Wagner entered the 2026-27 season with a completely new roster. Not a soul returned, as the Seahawks brought in 13 newcomers.
Out of the gate, things don't look great. The Seahawks' lone game scoring more than 57 points came in an exhibition on Oct. 24, when they demolished Division II Staten Island, 91-65.
Since then, they've lost to Boston College and Miami by 26-plus points.
Now, they draw one of the best and most well-coached teams in the country. This matchup should look a lot like their game against Boston College, as the Eagles play at a very slow pace and bring a suffocating defense.
It's safe to say the Seahawks will be well-prepared to take on Bryant & Stratton-Albany on Wednesday because they'll get demolished on Monday.
UConn Basketball
The Huskies got their revenge on the Wolverines. After waiting all summer long with that National Championship rematch on their mind, the Huskies delivered a 85-77 win over the reigning champions.
Now they have Wagner in front of them, followed by Ohio State on Friday and then Arizona and Duke on the horizon.
A gauntlet awaits; how motivated will this team be to go full throttle against the Seahawks? I know one way to attack this ball game.
Wagner vs. UConn Pick, Betting Analysis
There's no reason to want to sweat out the Huskies covering a big number when they have far more important tasks looming later in the week.
However, we know Dan Hurley's boys will bring two things: a slow-paced ballgame and a suffocating, intense defense.
Early on, Bart Torvik has this team ranked fifth in adjusted defensive efficiency.
Through five games this season, including two preseason exhibition games, the Huskies are allowing just 59.6 points per game.
They've held Syracuse, Purdue and Gardner-Webb under 53 points. The only two teams to score more were Michigan State and Michigan.
Now, the Huskies are playing bottom-20 Wagner.
The Seahawks shouldn't be able to breathe on Monday.
Pick: Wagner Team Total Under 50.5
