Message: [QUOTE="HuskyHawk, post: 1780104, member: 1414"] Why do you have to be so negative about it? UConn tanked 2014 on purpose to play kids who weren't ready. Not surprisingly (to me) that meant that 2015 was vastly better than what you'd predict from 2014 if you didn't know the reality. Since even 2015 was mostly kids with limited experience, I think 2016 is also a stronger roster than most people think. Several writers have picked us as a team with surprise upside. Is UVA a slam dunk? No. I have it as a pick-em too. But they should beat Syracuse, and BC is slight edge to UConn, even on the road. There is room for 7 wins certainly. @Houston is the only game I can't see them winning, but then I didn't see them beating Houston last year. Navy is vastly overrated this year. Temple is likely to take a step back, that's a tough game. Cinci is definitely down from last year as well and we get them at home. Other than Houston and USF, our toughest opponents are at home. There are several winnable road games. [/QUOTE]
