UConn (Reverse) Sheep Trivia - 2022

[Hans Sprungfeld]

After the K fest last year? I was a non-stop coach K party all season long. Besides, you never forget your first.

I was helped along, by thinking that we'd beaten Coack K twice, completely ignoring that Georgia Tech was an avenged-loss victory in the 2004 Finals.

 

[HuskyHawk]

As with Tate - Kemba, I switched from Nadav to Neils, figuring he'd be more relevant to more of the people here. So lessons for all - recency bias matters in the sheep phase.

Ray Allen was the top pick for lottery pick question (I chose Bouknight using the recency theory). Sometimes it works. Others not so much!

 

[UConNick]

Here, and with Coach K, is where we can all give proper thanks to @jfuchs91 for a "hand-scored" contest.

For that question my answer was “Coach K (pls don’t make me try to spell it out)”

 

[Get a Job]

For that question my answer was “Coach K (pls don’t make me try to spell it out)”

I don't mean to brag (yes I do), but I tried spelling it out and got it right on my first try!

It's gonna be really funny when @phillionaire makes a huge comeback because he picks the most obvious answer in the reverse sheep round while everyone else is stacked up on the "sneaky" pick they hoped no one else thought of

[SubbaBub]

For that question my answer was “Coach K (pls don’t make me try to spell it out)”

I learned this way, Krzyz (Krazy with 2 z's) and "jewski" (there are enough Polish descendents in CT for that to be an easy root to remember)

 

[Get a Job]

I learned this way, Krzyz (Krazy with 2 z's) and "jewski" (there are enough Polish descendents in CT for that to be an easy root to remember)

But that doesn't yield the correct spelling...

@phillionaire moving up the leaderboard!

 

[navery12]

Incorrect answer of 4 I can understand. 7 I'm not too sure about but probably 2 reasonable years I'm forgetting. 0 on the other hand...

 

[phillionaire]

@phillionaire moving up the leaderboard!

Playing the long game. I lulled everyone into a false sense of security by pretending to not have basic reading comprehension skills.

Anyone who got this wrong should be tarred and feathered. SHAME

I do not think like you people. I find that comforting.

I mean, they should have made it 1990, at least two of 1994, 1995, 1996, and 2006 at least. But, yeah, this one is sort of unforgivable.

Meant to put 6. Would've been wrong anyways, but 2006 counts in my book. There's no way we actually lost to George Mason

I accept the shame. I instinctively thought 5. But without looking it up, I just zoned out on 2009.

 

[Marbles90]

lol...Yep. Read the question wrong. Oh well, I'm out!!
