How many losses realistically in the AAC?

[Husky999]

2 maybe 3. The conference is an utter abomination.

I say four, maybe five. We can lose any of the four against SMU/Memphis, plus you have to assume a WTF lose or two with a team trying to find its identity during the season.

UConn 12-6 last year in AAC. So, subtract out 3 losses versus L'ville and you get 3 losses this year: SMU, Memphis, and Temple or Cincy.

no more than 3

I will only be okay with losses to SMU. We outmatch the rest of this conference by a lot and there are no excuses to lose to anyone else.

Uh, I don't think this team is as good as last year's. I mean, they won the national championship. That much better team lost 2x to SMU, once to Houston, and I may have a bad memory on this, but once to Cincy?

Not as good as tournament time 2013 team. They were not world-beaters during the regular season though.

5

I don't think they will lose 5 but I think it is realistic.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I think they have a pretty decent chance of losing tomorrow. There, I said it.

I think it's no more than 3 or 4 max, but I think many games will be closer than fans feel are appropriate. Which will cause meltdowns in some circles. I'm going to say 3 losses as my official prediction.

I also think Cassell sees more minutes than Purvis this year, though, so take my prediction with a heave grain of salt...

 

[gwhuskyfan]

4 is my prediction, but we always know UConn seems to lay a wtf loss in conference. I could see losing a close one against Haith @ Tulsa for instance

 

[UCweCONN]

Three today....
