Princeton taking it to Rutgers

[Plebe]

I agree that UConn shouldn't be afraid of Princeton per se but it definitely would be a "priceed with caution" kind of game.
Also, some are using Princeton losing to URI as a barometer, but let it be known that URI only lost by 9 at NC St and the game was a lot closer than the final score would indicate.

I didn't mean to say Rhode Island is a bad team. They're no cupcake. Impressive they were able to give NC State a run for their money (something UConn couldn't do).

But URI also lost to Maine, Quinnipiac, Providence and St. John's. So the balance of the evidence suggests that they won't be an at-large team if they don't win the A-10 tournament.

66-55 final. RU doesn't look very good. They drop to 6-7, I believe.

Easy there, you're talking about the "Jewel" of the East Coast in Women's Basketball.

Good players in any sport always want to play their game against the best, not against patsies. Coaches ( and fans) worry too much about the timing of who to play when, and, in some cases,, worry about losing to a Princeton team. Too bad.Tourney seedings, I guess.No way to avoid some of the Big East teams, but those games are boring, pose little challenge for the players and do little to help the team get better. Makes one miss the old Big East even more. Louisville, ND, Rutgers, Syracuse,Pitt,WVU so fortunate ( or more on the ball administration) to have gotten out. Certainly would have helped football become a bit competitive. Oh well...

It's Rutgers.

Princeton lost to Rhode Island and just barely edged out Seton Hall and Villanova. Carla's doing great overall, but if we're afraid to play them, then UConn is truly in a bad place.

Hey! Keep Rhode Island out of this....
