From what I have seen--Uconn can win 6 in a row

[scrappy2.0]

I believe that and were going to keep getting better. I thought Kentucky would be too rough but theyve had too many close calls to say unbeatable. Duke you play straight up--do NOT double Ok4--what other team--we can beat anyone.

I agree. It has taken this team a while to adjust to four new starters, but you can see roles starting to be defined. Omar is finding his groove as an offensive spark and three point shooter off the bench. The best is still to come for this group.

The reason UK eventually loses and doesnt win the National title is the Harrison twins.

To this point we don't look any less likely to pull off six in a row than last year's team did.

We have the elite defense needed to do it. The thing that makes me less willing to believe it is that I don't think our guard play is as good. But, seeing Omar's leaps in the past few games has got me thinking we might have a different formula that could be just as potent. Ollie seems to have a knack for finding the right combination and playing to strengths of his roster. The combination of that and our talent potential keeps me at least thinking about it as a possibility.

Honestly if they manage to win @ Tulsa and @ Stanford this week it should easily be 7 in a row heading to Cincinnati with the two directional Florida schools at home the week in between if the team has officially turned the corner and continues to play as they have since the 2nd half vs Florida. Big stretch here.

With Omar comin' and our defense locking down anything is possible but realistically we still have shortcomings. Our youngsters are improving as we all knew it would take time. Unfortunately our schedule had to be front loaded. UK is not unbeatable based on Mississippi and yesterday and Duke loses today. With Omar in that game playing better against them who knows? Just get us in the tourney and we'll take our chances.

We are DOOMED!!!!

Maybe a different 6 in a row?

Last year we won our final 6

I can't fathom why an NBA team would pick either one.

If we manage to make it into the tournament field, no one is going to want to play us. I think we get in as a very dangerous 9 or 10 seed.

 

[Scoe]

Were slowly getting there, lets get to the tournament first, one game at a time.

 

[NYC_HUSKY22]

Big story through all of this is we are 3 W's in a row... with a lot of people writing off the Florida game before the season started. Glass is half full gentlemen.

Really 9 or 10? Wow, how many more loses do you expect us to have. Right now as I type, we are a bubbly 9 or 10, I guess you expect us to pretty much the bed in the conf tourney, which is in our own backyard nonetheless. I honestly don't see us being underdogs the rest of the season, granted it'll be a miracle to run the table all the way to the tourney, but damn man have a little more faith in our guys, we're not in the BE anymore brah, we have the talent to own this sorry conference.
Hell, even with Charmin Oriahki commanding the paint in 2011-12 we were a 9 seed, this team is way better.

Let's win against Tulsa first.

I'm trying to be realistic. Last season we were a better team than we are now, and we ended up as a 7. I expect a couple more "WTF" losses, and in the American the wins don't count for us as much as the losses count against us.

I like to wait until we have won 5 in a row before talking about the possibly of six in a row.

 

[SellersElbow]

...that said, I do like the direction this team has been heading of late.

Nah. If there actually are bball gods, they know the OP is so far out there that his posts won't have any effect at all.

Umm yeah, look what happens when you make threads like this, its bad mojo.

Nah, I'm pretty sure if you ask him we can still pull off 39-0.

Leave Scrappy alone. If he doesn't want to give up his dealer that's on him.
