Message: [QUOTE="oldude, post: 3287965, member: 7511"] This past season the NCAA Selection Committee had the temerity to give UConn a #2 seed. Lou had some colorful comments about that decision and the Huskies rallied around their injured senior to roll over Louisville into their 12th consecutive FF. When the final buzzer sounded, the Huskies celebrated with a level of joy and satisfaction that only happens when a team proves to themselves and all the doubters that, “You underrate us at your peril.” Somewhere in Storrs, CT a short Italian guy is smiling at this and other preseason polls that sell the Huskies short. Don’t think for a second that UConn’s preseason practices won’t be punctuated with jibes from Geno to his team that, “Nobody thinks you guys are very good this year.” It’s never a smart move to poke the bear or, in this case, to poke the Husky.
