Andy Katz saying they're a lock for the tournament now, barring a complete meltdown this last month of the season.

Seriously?
Two top 10 wins this week. Well above 500 in conference. It very much pains me to say this but Katz is right if they can finish the acc above .500.
They looked worse than us at one point too.

Two top 10 wins this week, but those are their only top 25 wins all year. They have 7 games left, 2 against Louiville and 1 against Duke. Assuming they lose those 3 and win the other 4, they will finish the season 19-12 with only two top 25 wins.

EDIT: *19-12. I guess they played an extra game somewhere in there.

You're making some broad assumptions.

Well I'm just going by what the odds say. Louisville and Duke are much better teams. If they win 1 or 2 of those games then I agree with you.

I believe he was talking about UVA.

If SU has a .500 record rest of the way and gets bumped in 1st round of ACC tourney, they're not even close.

Their RPI was something like 80 before this game was played. They have a lot of work to do, and a landmine game or two on the road that they can't drop, in addition to needing to win a few of those top 25 games left on their sched.

The two top ten teams they just beat were also much better teams. Syracuse is playing well right now.

And let's be honest, if we are giving up appendages, you might as well shoot for a NC, rather than a pedestrian regular season.

Yeah I'm not willy-nilly giving up digits for 15 wins. It's like Esau giving up his birthright for a bowl of porridge.

And I thought cracking a beer at 10am while in a hotel room in Cali was pathetic.

I know, we Uconn fans are in absolutely no position to give any other team any s__t this year, outside of BC. I would trade that win over cuse for a solid record like they have right now...for real.

and are the huskies even in the running for the NIT or CBI or whatever at this point? No.
