- Analysis
- This is a play on the FURMAN PALADINS for our CBB Friday Late Powerhouse. Furman got into the NCAA Tournament from the jumbled and wide open Southern Conference as the Paladins won three games in three days including taking out regular season champion East Tennessee St. in the championship with a no sweat 15-point win. They come in at a No. 15 seed and actually caught a break with this matchup not because they have should not be a No. 15 seed but because Connecticut was overseeded. They have a strong offense that is No. 46 in the country in Effective Field Goal Percentage. This is more of a fade of the Huskies more than anything as they were blown out by St. John’s in the Big East Championship and also suffered bad late season losses against Creighton and Marquette. They are the ultimate sell high team as they are on a 14-0 ATS NCAA Tournament run, the longest streak ever. 10* (751) Furman Paladins
