ESPN Poll - Are You Rooting Against UConn

[Plumber Luigi]

My biggest fear is that once again Tuesday's game is hyped as the game of the century and the first half ends up like the Championship game against Stanford in 2010 with both teams not able to hit the broad side of a battleship. Of course if it ends the same way then the poor shooting during the first half is immaterial.

I think UConn getting 40% is pretty good considering a lot of people want a new champion. When I was at the Denver Final Four two years ago I came across two Tennessee "fans" wearing "ABC" T-shirts - Anyone But UConn. I told them that was pretty poor sportsmanship. No comment from them.

I remember first seeing the ABC shirts at the FF in San Antonio...they were everywhere...then Renee Montgomery made and sold her own version of it, No 1 but Connecticut...she was shipping them overnight and even delivering them in SA...I think they outnumbered the ABC shirts...it was all in fun. I would have a few choice words for someone if they came up to me and told me what I was wearing was showing pretty poor sportsmanship. It's not like ABC was a personal attack or something really nasty. No big deal in my book.

What's interesting is in CT, 92% for UConn. In Indiana it's only 55% for ND.

That is the 'expected to win' poll - the rooting for pool is much more balanced nationwide and clearly ND in the midwest.
