Nah - it takes the fun out of giving them their first reality check. It also reinforces the fear of UConn in the back of their minds, which could come in handy in the NCAAs.... But other than that, playing better teams OOC should be mandatory...
Hi CC - tough night for you I am sure - Uconn is just kryptonite for Duke it seems. I was really surprised when I looked at Duke's schedule this year to date - expected a little more competitive OOC from them.This year, the OOC was bad. In previous years, it was much better. Next year, in addition to UConn, Stanford will be on the schedule. Hopefully, there will be other better OOC teams.
