[B]I understand and respect your take on this. [/B]I've been informed by another poster that while the organizers have not yet announced the parings for the showcase, UConn and LSU WILL NOT play each other. Of course, we have no way of knowing if this was mutually agreed to by Geno and Kim. LSU would not have had any more time to jel than we would.

Call me crazy, but I never go into any game thinking we might lose. And if we do, so what. Do you think UConn will run the table and go undefeated this year? If we do lose, would you rather it be to a top 5 opponent, or an unranked Big East conference team like we did last year? Every year the most important games are the last 6. If we can win those, it doesn't matter how many we lose along the way.

So perhaps we can look for (and get excited about) matchups with[B] UCLA[/B] and [B]Virginia Tech[/B]. I'm not going to assume anything here, but we know Geno does not have a history of shying away or "ducking" anyone. I remember years ago him very clearly saying.......[I]"anyone, anywhere, anytime."[/I] Until I hear differently, I'll assume that has not changed. :cool:
