Message: [QUOTE="Tonyc, post: 4485997, member: 73"] All you need to know is what you see. UConn is playing the tuffest schedule in WCBB and winning with a depleted lineup. Now we are looking at Azzi and Aubrey coming back very soon and Caroline looking like the Caroline we saw last year. Couple them with Nika at the point and Lou and youve got a team that will blow out some ranked teams. IMO its SC and UConn(when healthy) with Stanford not far behind. We are missing Paige and ICE for the season. Paige provided good ball handling skills, leadership and a great shot. Nika now provides the ball handling and leadership and Lou provides the outside shot. They are not Paige but they are great replacements. Aaliyah and Dorka have improved and just may have picked up the slack for ICE on the bench. Now I will profess that saying neither Paige or ICE can be replaced and we dont know what ICE might have contributed if she was healthy. We can though use what I mentioned as coming from what some of us thought. The polls are the polls. Any dum dum can see that a healthy UConn team is better then advertised in the rankings. Keep that in mind when reading posts. When I look at the polls I sometimes think did these people do any research or look at what is going on with teams. Hey its somebody elses opinion and they are entitled to it. Some will agree and some will disagree and we should respect that and put it in the back of our minds. Reading the posts on the board shows UConn fans are very excited about getting Aubrey and Azzi back and are excited about how the team is playing at another level. When Aubrey and Azzi get back give them some time to get back on track. Theyre coming back from and injury and being sick. They werent popped our of a microwave and will be what we remember them being. It will take a few games to get back on track. When they do ... We will be good. We are really really good. [/QUOTE]
