I think what helps us immensely in our quest for a repeat is that there don't appear to be any truly elite teams this season. It seems like anyone can lose to a decent team on any given night. I don't think we'll run into any juggernauts on a neutral floor come March.

We certainly have the least-bad loss of any of the other top 10 teams.

Purdue, pretty bad.
Marquette, not great.
Duke, pretty bad.
Kentucy, really really bad.
Us, respectable.

Well it won’t be Dook. Not that it would have been They just took their 3rd loss of the year to GT on the road. There were a few shots of Scheyer on the bench and he had a confused look on his face. Like I have no idea what to do. Dook could end up having a bad year, I mean a really bad year. They do not look like a very good basketball team.

Sounds like every year with the exception of Gonzaga Baylor. The last juggernaut may have been

The only safe pick is Arizona at 1.

Will Kanas jump Marquette who buried them? Don't think so.

Will Houston, undefeated, jump to #2? I doubt it.

My guess -
1. Arizona
2. Marquette
3. Kansas
4. Houston
5. UConn

Duke will be 3

As far as I'm concerned Duke will always be number two!

I had no idea until a few minutes ago that other teams in the top 10 lost. I think we should drop no lower than 5. Anything below that is a joke. Lose by 4 in Lawrence in a game they actually win if Spencers 3 goes down shouldnt drop us much if at all and with so many other teams losing i dont see how they dont remain top 5 because Purdue and Marquettes losses were bad losses.

Prepare to be punished. We always are disrespected because the powers that be need the P5 conferences to shine and catch eyes.$$$

Will be the top 5 on Monday. I think we slide to maybe as low as 7. We arent going to get moved up after a loss no matter how good a loss it is. We arent slobbered like Duke is.
pretty sure KY won't be 5, after a loss at home to an unranked team... shows the danger of making predictions!

Come on. Enough of the pity party. We are UConn.
