Message: [QUOTE="Sherman20, post: 4789497, member: 6357"] Last year’s UConn team really came together by the end of the season. They were talented and a true title contender. But they did have a favorable bracket and upsets along the way that made their path a lot easier. Their 2011 and 2014 titles, though, are complete jokes, a rip in the space-time continuum or a devils bargain that either one of those teams made the Final Four let alone won national titles. Meanwhile we have the bad fortune to lose our difference-making centers on all-time elite Cuse teams in both 2010 and 2012. Oh, and not to mention Keith Smart, running into an historically elite Kentucky team in the 1996 final, the bad bounces/luck vs Illinois in 1989, and the Lawrence Moten TO debacle in 1995. I get that all teams have bad luck March Madness moments, but UConn’s good fortune in the tourney has been insane and Cuse’s has often gone the other way. [/QUOTE]
