The 30 best non-con games before Christmas

[HooperScooper]

Continuing the trend of posting lists with UConn in them. Games against Michigan and Maryland are 2 of the 30.

Wednesday, Nov. 25: UConn (16) vs. Michigan (30).

Big opportunity for Michigan here, as the Wolverines open bracket play in the Bahamas with a chic pick of a UConn club that's got Huskies fans thinking 25-plus wins this season. Caris LeVert, who went down with a foot injury in January and missed the rest of the season, is an All-American candidate in the eyes of some. The Huskies have Daniel Hamilton, Sterling Gibbs, Rodney Purvis and a new guy named Jalen Adams (No. 18 in our list of the top 25 freshmen) who I think will have a superb season.

Top 101 players involved: 4


Tuesday, Dec. 8: Maryland (4) vs. UConn (16).

The Jimmy V Classic offers up a tasty matchup here. Keep an eye on the progress of Diamond Stone, the freshman, who I rank No. 13 among all first-year guys, could go up against Amida Brimah here. Robert Carter is the other big man for Maryland that people are expecting to be extremely good this season. Of all the 30 games listed, I think this one qualifies in the top five for potential of being the most entertaining.

Love the Chic Uconn Pick. Maybe a 5th national championship will get us away from Chic.

And if we make it to the winners bracket and play Texas A&M or Gonzaga, those games would probably make that list of 30 too.

P.S. Norlander would use the word "chic"

This could end up being one of our best OOC schedules ever.

Probably never.

Ain't no thing as long as they keep winning.
