I am not one to stay updated on the status of other conferences and teams, just an occasional peek at the NCAA section on ESPN or SportCenter news. I have noticed that there appears to be a lot of big name teams struggling and a lot of teams that are simply not doing as well as expected (double digit losses).
Here is a good list to reference: Linky
This season nearly every team seems to have bad losses and no one but perhaps a handful of teams appear to be dominating or playing well. The eye test tells me that our team is not as bad as we may think. Sure we ourselves have had some terrible losses and some head scratching games, but I wonder if we are too critical of a team that has and is reloading. I know we have high standards but to me it seems that considering what we lost we are still competitive, irrespective of our post season future. And now showing more 'glimpses' of UConn basketball I might add.
So I ask those in the know (taking off the UConn glasses) are we really doing that bad, considering the current landscape and the relative comparisons?
