UConn Revenge Tour 2020 Begins (Bye Bye AAC)

[McLovin]

Kicked off the revenge tour with a WIN! Let's leave a salty taste in the mouth of every legacy AAC team.

A quote that will be remembered for a long time by our fearless leader Dan Hurley: "they better get us now..."

Let's slam that door in their faces and say "now was then, and this is the future.".

Will update as we kick arse and take names (or whatever).

Tulsa - WIN
Cincy - WIN
SMU - Loss
Memphis - WIN
Temple - Loss
USF - WIN
UCF - WIN
ECU - WIN
Houston - WIN
Tulane - TBD

McLovin It.

 

[UConn_Top_Dog]

Bad taste of UConn in they mouth!

 

[ucawn]

As crazy as it sounds I like our chances of winning the last 7 games

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Kenpom has our only projected losses as @SMU and home vs Houston 19-12 10-8 miraculously puts us on the bubble heading into the AACT

 

[B1GEast]

Let'a take the AAC tourney as well

Nah, not on the bubble. Our computer numbers will be good, but our resume will be lacking.

We're exactly the team that computers overrated. We lose all close games and then win all our wins by double digits. We'd be 5-10 in Q1+Q2.

Let'a take the AAC tourney as well

This is more realistic, if a long shot.

Huge game Sunday. After this stretch of Cincinnati, @ SMU, and Memphis at home we have this to end the conference year:

@ Temple
USF
UCF
@ ECU
Houston
@Tulane

We could go on a nice run.

Other than Houston at home, we may be favored in every game.

If only SMU was home, they’re a terrible road team

do you mean 9?

 

[GHSWolverines]

I see us winning at least 6 of our remaining 9 games.

Nice

 

[Com'rGordon]

real time RPI predicts us to go 16-15. All starts with Cincy

now, that's the spirit! why not us?

 

[BPT2Storrs]

Let'a take the AAC tourney as well

Tourney is in Texas this season right?

We have a good track record of winning tournaments in Texas.

 

[Jaker]

the ultimate slap to the conference would be Uconn winning the automatic berth to the tourney.

 

[Hamms30]

There is a very relevant clip in Major League to this thread. There's a potty word in it though and I don't know how that'd be received. So I'll leave you with this. "Well then I guess only one thing left to do.."

Yes at the Fort Worth Marriott ballroom 3A

 

[McLovin]

2 down. 8 to go.

"Win the whole fcu king thing!"

 

[auror]

Let's GOOOOO

 

[imno1]

So is SMU a must win

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Won’t see much KenPom movement as good as this win feels. It was almost their exact predicted score

pompom, romcom, NetZero … who cares! just win, baby!

 

[JonnyRI]

Next stop Dallas. Time to turn the Mustangs to glue!

 

[ucawn]

Tough one. I don’t think anyone expected a win so quit expecting a win after the game, that’s not how things work. 7 more winnable games to go, enough to reach our regular season win record and claim a good seed in the AAC tourney, also a strong resume for the NIT

 

[ucawn]

UCF and ECU go down

2 to go

Really 1 to go in terms of revenge. Hopefully we get another shot at WSU or SMU in the AAC Tourney. Those are the only two other than Houston we didn’t beat this year.

It pains me how close this team was this year. Outside the two duds we lost by 16 and 15 to open AAC play, the other 6 conference losses were by 3 (2ot), 4, 4 (ot), 7, 4, 4 (2ot).
