UConn hoops back to Big East

[RF2044]

Glass houses guys. Uconn, by any measure, is currently a better team than us and, unfortunately, has a better short term upside.

No they're not.

They'd lose to UNC by 20. C'mon...

I agree, I really don't think they win any of the games we lost.

Yeah... that's not really a thing in a sports message board schadenfreude post. Every other part of the post is wrong as well.

They’re ranked today. That’s what I do know. Don’t care much about short term or long term outlook or trying to compare schedules etc.

We’ve got our own serious issues to contend with, that’s for sure.

Absolutely, but the notion that they are far and away better at this point is silly. We have to take care of business and get back on track.

They are ranked with a likely lottery pick back in the Big East and we just got swept by a cellar dwellar.

THey aren't that much better than us but still. Sad thing is there was no real gap between us and them the last few years they stunk in the AACK.

Idk if you were here for the trash talking ( and I’m using the “trash” lightly as it was 100x worse than that) but in no way shape or form are we to give Con U any sort of credit.
We do not get along at all.


Only one person gets a pass and that’s the great and powerful temery

 

[stlorange]

not giving uconn credit, but you gotta be pretty stupid to trash talk when you are getting your ass kicked the last two games and have looked good only once all year.

Uconn finally played a traditional rival in the new Big East conference last night.

St Johns at home.

Suffered a disastrous loss.

Mike Anthony: Without James Bouknight, UConn can’t walk tightrope in ‘brutal’ loss to St. John’s

UConn on Monday discovered what a tightrope it is walking without James Bouknight and left Gampel Pavilion counting the ways that a winnable game should have actually been won. With Bouknight in street clothes, the No. 23 Huskies dominated St. John’s early, led St. John’s for 36 minutes and lost...

lol

Put it on ignore if it bothers you so much.

So, we are one spot ahead of UConn on the BPI.

He's an eph'ing buffoon.

 

[MSOrange]

BTW I'm not a UConn stalker. I just happened to check twitter during an SU break and saw he was trending and of course, it was for being a buffoon.

 

[jdubs30]

UConn’s best team since 2014 and I’m still pretty confident we’d beat them ... even with Bouknight

Bouknight is a stud...other then that they are unimpressive and have Hurley as a coach. Love seeing them get hammered!

 

[JeremyCuse]

The best part of Uconn losing is reading their alleged board insider break down the game in the third person. They can't lose enough

 

[Orangezoo]

Creighton has no business being ranked 11 right now. After this past week they are probably barely still top 25. Meanwhile UConn won't be sniffing the polls for a while.

 

[Capt. Tuttle]

This concept of lack of FB revenue hurting basketball seems lost on the likes of Villanova, Gonzaga, Creighton,etc.

 

[orangecuse]

Wasn’t Whaley one of those much more highly regarded C spot guys we went after hard and missed on? From the bit I saw of him today, he looks solid and would’ve been a Fuccillo ‘HUGE’ improvement in talent level at the 5.

This New Big East conference looks really crappy. Nova is the only decent team. They got schooled earlier this year by the same VT team we just destroyed. As of today, they are rated the 7th best conference in the country. Might only get 1 bid.

Meanwhile the American conference, freed of one of their worst programs when UConn was relegated again to the New Big East, is rated the 2nd best conference in the country.

Good for them.

I can't stand UConn but with their full compliment of players I believe they beat cuse fairly easily.
