This 4 game stretch

[mauconnfan]

Temple, Tulsa, SMU, Cincy

Looks pretty tough but UConn teams of the past think 4-0 right. What are you thinking out there? I am hoping for 3-1 but deep down inside I want them to be thinking 4-0 because they are UConn. I mean all these teams are good or at least solid, but we should be 3-0 vs the 3 of them we have already played and instead are 0-3 and right now this hurts. Getting to 21-6 with 5 left gives them a run at talking 4/5 seed. I mean the only team as good or maybe slightly better is SMU. Win the first 2 and home at 19-6 with a nice run, the crowd will be ready for SMU in a big way.

I think they go to Philly and take care of business, hold them down again defensively and score points this time, and DHam will not go 2-13 in this one, Adams is a better player and AB is back. Tulsa is close to the same story but I believe our guys do take care of this one too so the next 2 are huge.

Happy with 3-1 but let's really see if they're coming together!

Very Happy with 4-0 and talk of 4/5 seed. Agree with DHam showing better this time, especially with AB back. The next 2 are HUGE for team confidence going into the SMU game.

3-1 seems the most realistic. Until they prove that they can start handling better competition on the reg then I can't revert back to the "UConn teams of old" thinking. Not too long ago I would expect to win every game, now the recent train of thought has me more hoping not to lose (does that make sense? maybe...)

4-0

 

[Thirty Three]

4-0

 

[BoatShow]

FucIk it let's win em all

 

[gtcam]

3 weeks ago I wouldn't have hesitated to say 1-3
2 weeks ago I would have thought 2-2
last week 3-1 but still leaning at 2-2
Now I say 3-1 but 4-0 is reachable but 2-2 isn't unrealistic
They have been playing really good but lets see if this stretch of inspired play will continue - need DHam to continue to play well and SG to decide to show up all game- AB is a bonus

The Temple game is really big. Temple's schedule I think the rest of the way is a little easier. They could win the conference or come close. We really need to to beat them. The Temple loss is already holding us back. Another would really suck.

3-1. SMU is our Achilles heel.

 

[Ts5034]

Well...if anybody has any questions about this team, we will know all the answers after these next 4 games. Winning all 4 is very realistic but it wont be easy beating Temple and Cincy on the road. I wil feel very confident this team could make a deep run in the NCAA Tournament if they take all 4.

3-1. SMU is our Achilles heel.

[huskyharry]

one at a time, beat the Temple Owls!

 

[Husky25]

1-0. Take care of business then worry about the next game.

 

[mauconnfan]

Agree with harry and 25 here, need the first one to even begin the thought process. But hard not to look at these 4 without thinking the importance it has to this season.

It's Owl time

well, yeah if it was 1 - (0X4), as written i think it equals 4. but my intent was to say 'one at a time' was I obtuse?

Nah, you don't need parentheses for order of operations to take over, but we know what you meant.
