Too bad Ollie never stopped to think about and tell the team that just because a win is out of reach (i.e. Arkansas and Auburn), doesn’t mean you take your foot off the gas and coast to the end of the game. That’s how you end up looking like ____ in Kenpom and BPI.

The game is changing. You can’t stop playing hard when you lose, and you can’t feel bad about blowing teams out.

So what did he say when you were standing in those huddles and locker room?
How did he tell the team to quit vs Auburn and Arkansas? Was it point blank or did he send secret notes to them?
Being you know so much about what KO does and thinks PLEASE shed all you know as fact, being you are so close to the man

And playing hard and not feeling bad when you blow out an opponent is new due to recent changes in the game?

Up 15 spots on Massey to #94 and playing #101 Memphis (who is up 46 places by beating the 3 T's of AAC Tulsa, Tulane and Temple). Massey #80 is a 10-6 Iowa State who has loss to WI Milwaukee so beat Memphis there and should be in some type of 80's. Number #50 is Alabama at 11-6 (loss to UCF).
Getting from #150 to #100 takes few wins, to #80 takes a string of wins, to #50 takes beating some top 50 teams. Being in top 50 gets you in consideration for NCAA, especially for a UConn team that can only do it by winning more at end of season than in beginning.
Will UConn get in NCAA's, at least as likely as the 9-9 league Kemba team winning 11 straight games to end the season was before the BE tournament started.

"Posting on the Boneyard is fun again"?
What else do you do for fun?
A play on a thread in the Football forum about UConn football being fun to watch again, made in week 5 or so when the offense was decent and we had yet to see how truly bad the defense was.

Then the back half of the season happened

I haven’t bothered changing it since.

The Tulsa loss really hurts, could’ve made us 4-1 in conference and 2-0 on the road.
It stings. Especially how it happened. *shaking head*
