Before making any Arkansas vs. UConn picks, you NEED to check out the college basketball predictions from the SportsLine Projection Model.

The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every Division I college basketball game 10,000 times. The model enters the Sweet 16 round of the 2023 NCAA Tournament 83-54 on all-top rated college basketball picks this season, returning more than $1,500 for $100 players. It also went 4-1 on top-rated picks during the first week of March Madness. Anybody who has followed it has seen huge returns. 

The model knows Arkansas junior guard Ricky Council IV is an athletic scoring option who excels in transition. Council IV has great finishing skills and absorbs contact in the lane. The North Carolina native leads the team in points (16.1) with 3.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists per game. In the win over Kansas in the second round, Council IV notched 21 points, six rebounds and four assists.

The model also knows UConn forward Adama Sanogo is a big and strong force in the lane. Sanogo owns great touch around the rim with a smooth low post offensive game. The Mali native leads the team in both scoring (17.3) and rebounds (7.5). On Sunday against Saint Mary's, Sanogo finished with 24 points and eight rebounds.
