LOTS of chatter about UConn being #1, next week. It is my opinion that the "experts" will avoid voting for UConn in that spot until they have to; I think they are enjoying giving other teams those votes. Not saying anything bad in any way...just understanding human nature. UConn has the stats to do it, but I don't think it will happen.
BTW: UConn isn't even #1 in the AAC!!! East Carolina is 3-0, while UConn is a paltry 2-0!

UCONN hasn't earned number one yet. ND's take down of Washington showed ND is loaded with talent multiples in each position.
IS ND number one?? Maybe today this week. They are good. USC isn't a toss away either. Now Tenn is a whole different story--
Uconn is developing and growing--every game--foul trouble seems their current curse--Talent at every position--outstanding talent of 3 maybe 4 people--The major asset of Uconn is their ability to screwup and then fix up with defense and scoring--but a team can live that life just so long.
This is MY TEAM--I'll ride Geno's coat tails until the bitter (or sweet) end.
Not to be Debby Downer of this thread but it's pretty pointless to worry about being #1 or 2 or 10 only 2 games in.
Let's see where they land at the end of the season, that's what matters the most IMO
Uconn WBB is searching for : 1. a true leader 2. a constant go to 3. defense without fouls 4. chemistry and this is ONLY game 3 of the 2016/17 season--hold on this will be one ----of a fun ride. Can you remember a season in the recent past where you enjoyed it so much? A win means some thing to them and to us NOW.
