The way UConn’s resume is shaping up during non-con and the opportunities that lay ahead in conf play, I’d say the best shot is to do as well or better than Arizona State did last year.  They were one of the last teams in.   They were 22-10 (after conf. tournament play) and their quadrants looked like so:

Q1: 3-3
Q2: 8-3
Q3: 5-2
Q4: 6-2

Their non-conference SOS was slightly better and their conference SOS was slightly higher than UConn’s will likely be this year.  They had a better NET ranking too.   However, avoid anymore Q3/Q4 losses and you can give up an extra Q1/Q2 win or two.

Again, ASU was just about as bubbly as you can get… so anything better improves the case come March.

Between Jan 1 and Feb 20th, I’d like to see at least 9 wins to stay on pace with ASU last year and that includes going 3-3 out of: H-WSU/Mem and @Mem/Nova/Hous/Temple.   You wanna play in March, you gotta win some games against other teams who'll be there.
