Simulation Results

A 10,000-game Monte Carlo simulation was run using current 2025 season metrics: UConn’s adjusted offensive efficiency (115.2, top-5 nationally), defensive efficiency (92.1), tempo (72.1); DePaul’s offensive efficiency (102.4), defensive efficiency (108.7), tempo (70.8). Incorporated recent form (UConn 7-3 ATS last 10, +12.4 margin; DePaul 4-6 ATS vs ranked, allowing 82.1 PPG), home/away splits, and no major injuries impacting key contributors. Random variance modeled score distributions with Poisson for points.
