Charlie Creme's last bracketology has UConn ....

[Rowdy831]

The reality is UConn would either be the 4 or 5 overall seed which means they would play each other regardless of who is 4 and who is 5. They are playing on a neutral court so the only thing would be different is the color of the jersey for the game.

With that said I don't see any team in this bracket that is a matchup problem for UConn. I have stated many times that UConn has the best roster in the country and I still stand by that so they will make the Final Four. Initially I thought Texas might be tough but they simply don't have the offense to stay with a team that plays good defense and can score. I would be surprised if Texas makes it to the regional final.

Everyone is has bias. If your employer has bias and you want to remain employed you better share that bias to some degree.

A very general statement that in no way constitutes specific evidence of Rebecca's or anyone else's alleged bias.

Judge: You're charged with bias. How do you plead?
Defendant: Not guilty, Your Honor!
Judge: Exactly what a biased person would say. You're hereby found guilty.

If you watch ESPN for even an hour you would know they favor the SEC and it doesn't really matter what sport it is either. They have financial interests in the SEC and it shows in their reporting and sportcasting. Bias would be saying UConn would have won fewer games this year if they played in the SEC or BIG Ten instead of the Big East. They might have but they handled the best SEC team with ease at their own gym and lost to the best team in the Big Ten by 2 points without one of their key players.

Bias can be very obvious and bias can be very subtle. Bias is also subjective so comparing it to the perfect courtroom scene from a TV show might now be the most accurate way to measure it. btw with Rebecca I think she knows she has bias toward UConn so she goes out of her way NOT to appear to be biased, which is also bias.

I don't remember UCONN playing Louisville in the tournament in recent years.

2019 Elite 8 in Albany



My favorite play is with the score UConn 69-63........about 10:20 into the you tube video, or 3.20 left on 4th quarter game clock.

Kyla Irwin on the bench
all 3 coaches, CD, Shea, and Lister stood and the fist pumps.

And the fact that we also lost to the team that finished 9th in the SEC should be ignored?

I appreciate your substantive response but it's notable that the only concrete example you provide is a statement that you concede is likely true.

I'm trying to figure out how you can be ranked in the top four in every national poll but yet not be a number one seed.

Wait, what? We aren’t a #1 seed?But but but

Sorry but I disageee. Don’t want to see ND at any point. I don’t care how much they are struggling; they’ve had our number for the past few years and really seem to rise up to the occasion when they play Uconn.

I say bring on any team BUT SCar or ND again!

I agree.. I don't want to see ND in this tournament. Then again, if it happens, I feel that Uconn can blitz them like they did South Carolina.

The top 8 teams I think can all beat each other on a given day. We could win it all but as we saw Tennessee game we could lose a game we shouldn't. With Aubrey back hopefully we will be at our best defensively. That is our advantage. Bad shooting night can be the downfall of our team but our defense will keep us in all the games. It should be interesting and I think Paige, Azzi and Sarah are gonna help us cut down the nets this year. Go Huskies!!!!!
