Message: [QUOTE="Sphinx, post: 2448781, member: 4623"] Right, Columbia is now a 1-5 Ivy and therefore must suck. This kind of assessment (and you aren't the only one) is just laziness. Columbia has played six straight road games, three of them against Villanova, Penn State and UConn. They lost by 14 at Villanova, 7 at Colgate. What has UConn done to suggest they would do any better? Do you recall the UConn-Colgate game? Point is that this UConn team, Wednesday night, (particularly with six players either sitting injured or playing injured) was not 20 or 30 or 40 points better then Columbia. If that is your point, you're right. But if your point is that the UConn victory was not "gutted out", you're dead wrong. UConn rallied from 15 points behind, physically hurting, against a disciplined team that smelled victory and battled them every inch of the way. Kudos for the effort and, yes, for the guts. [/QUOTE]
