Message: [QUOTE="Puppy Love, post: 5315588, member: 8101"] I think that the 1995 team had the weakest schedule of any UConn women’s team to ever win a national championship. The only game against an actual title contender was the midseason game against Tennessee. The Big East was abominable then and the rest of the nonconference schedule wasn’t that great either. I think that mid season games against top teams are fun for the fans and are good for the game, but I don’t believe they have any bearing on who will win the championship. Teams either know what their weaknesses are, and do something to address them, or they don’t. But those things are learned in practices, not in games. You might argue that UConn came away from the Tennessee loss this year with a new focus, but those kinds of losses can just as easily happen against an unranked team [/QUOTE]
