Tony Garcia writes: "It’s already a banner season for Alabama, which has made the Final Four for the first time. That’s plenty good enough for a football powerhouse ushering in a new era in its primary sport. UConn, in case it’s not clear, is on a march path right now and nobody looks like it can stop Donovan Clingan, Tristen Newton and Cam Spencer."

Sloan Piva writes: "Sorry to make this anticlimactic, but we're not even dreaming of betting against the Huskies. The Tide have been awesome — the No. 1 scoring offense in the nation — but the Huskies play superior team basketball in just about every facet of the game. Alabama's three-point shooting could easily make this a high-scoring game, but we have no faith in the Tide's defense being able to contain UConn's elite passing, scoring, and rebounding. Dan Hurley's squad hasn't won by fewer than 13 points in 10 consecutive March Madness games, and it won't start now."
