The evidence we could beat them is the real life game that happened in the round of 32. If you think a 2 point loss means Florida would win 10 of 10 times then you're even dumber than I originally thought
He is that dumb @navery12 as he continues to double and triple down on this take.
What do you think KP would say when theirs was 16 pts higher than ours? Let me answer that for you - 10/10. We didn’t beat better than a 8 seed all year and we think we’d beat the best team in the country. There is a small group here that gets but hurt when their imaginations are contested. We lost - we were down 7 under a minute. Any game after that would be an even heavier favorite to FL. The more talented team will have the advantage the more a times they play a team. You can only surprise a team once.
I can’t even follow what you’re arguing anymore. “They are titanically better than last year’s team.” Who? Florida? What are we even talking about?
You seem to lack a basic understanding of probability and odds, I wouldn't even discuss that with you let alone the intricacies of advanced metrics. It is possible that we were not a good team and also that the odds of winning a single game in a 10 game series is not 0
I think you meant to respond to the other dude. He thinks we were CCSU going up against 1990 UNLV for some reason, and can’t be told otherwise
What you have is what the S Curve should be (maybe before Arizona's loss last night). What the Committee has is probably more like
Same level of sketchiness as UNC getting in last year when their AD was the Committee chair and there were (at least) a handful of more deserving teams. The AD apparently “recused” himself from any discussions about UNC which totally made it legit. I’m sure.
I tend to think looking that far ahead is too much - we need to get there first. So do they. You're right about coaching - Sampson is also due, and I get the sense he really wants it this year as he doens't have one yet and has an offensive tool that he's never had before in Flemming. Playing Duke in DC will have a strong Duke crowd.
We got it alright - BM has about 80% of their brackets with Uconn as the 1. http://www.bracketmatrix.com/ESPN Bracketology as of today still has UConn 1 seed. In Philly.

The selection show is almost here! Here's the latest look at what we're expecting when it starts.www.espn.com
Along with him saying, "Right now everyone is seeing AZ & UM as the final."
Don’t get him going again. One of the weirdest crash outs I’ve seen on here
Ah, no. I know there is a refusal or want to see what the outside world is seeing here (you are an extreme case), but it's how a lot of the national media is seeing it. AZ & UM are a "cut above", yada. Hard to argue it for now as the metrics and Vegas support. This doesn't have to be offensive to UConn fans - we can be perfectly happy proving them otherwise.
It's a daily event. I don't understand what's going on with him.
We might just want Michigan to win out. I don't think it's likely we catch them considering the current gap in both wab and the predictives, so better to put Purdue and Duke both down relative to us.
Yes. It's better for us if michigan beats duke, since they're going to chicago, rather than competing with us for DC.
With the Houston loss last night, we just need to win out. These are games we should win, and right the ship a bit. Would rather win into a good situation than backdoor, while gaining momentum.
I am very worried about Villanova at Villanova. More because of how we are playing than them. And St John’s dominated us in “our second home.” Yeah, it’s theirs too, but nobody gets all hot and bothered about MSG like UConn fans. (After 50 years as a UConn fan I still don’t understand it. Give most UConn fans the choice of a 3-some with their choice is 2 top models of the year or go to MSG, UConn fans are the only people on earth who would choose MSG). I don’t have confidence that we will get through the rest of the year without a couple of additional losses. I hope we do, but Georgetown was very disappointing.
