Unbeatens Falling

[nwhoopfan]

Will UConn and MS run the table all the way to the 1st round of the NCAA Tournament, or might there be a loss somewhere along the trail with their name on it?

MSU isn't going to run the table during the SEC regular season and/or conference tournament.

The cream continues to rise to the top! Three teams left. After Louisville/UConn play in February, there will only be two undefeated teams remaining, assuming Mississippi State stays the course.

I don't think so either . It will get harder for them to win games as the season moves along. Fatigue, lack of focus, maybe a little "salt" forming around the edges, their opponents getting up for them, and not being able to match that enthusiasm or resolve. Like ND did yesterday, they're going to catch somebody on a really good night (for the other team), and a bad one for them, and won't be able to stop the bleeding once it starts.

UConn had better show up with it's lunch pale, hard hat and steel toe boots, because it's going to be THAT kind of game.
Query...............................you think that you'll be able to walk up to the box office and purchase a ticket 30 minutes before the tip?

So today, Ball State decided they could no longer bear the pressure of a single loss and proceeded to lose to Buffalo.
This leave 3 unbeaten (UCONN, Mississippi State, and Louisville), and 2 single loss (Baylor and Tennessee)

 

[trisailin]

Tennessee couldn't handle the pressure of being a single loss team last night so now we are down to 3 unbeaten, and just one single loss.

 

[trisailin]

So down to 2 unbeaten, 2 single loss (Louisville, & Baylor)

Louisville wont be undefeated on Feb 11.

Congratulations again Triad. You make another correct prophetic call. You're on a roll.

Who loses another game first, Baylor or Louisville?

I tried to tell them..... guess they didnt want to listen to a guy with a bag over his head

 

[trisailin]

As a point of reference, at the same time last year, games through 1/21/2017, the same two teams were unbeaten (Mississippi State and UCONN). There were 4 teams with single loss (Baylor, Harvard, Maryland, South Carolina)

Triad, you have to be patient with us. Sometimes folks don't recognize genius even though it can be staring them right in the face.

Today Florida @ Miss St., Louisville @ Miami, and Texas @ Baylor. So all three (other) either zero (Miss St) or single loss teams (Baylor, Louisville) play today.
Point of reference: At this point last year, only UCONN was unbeaten (Miss St having lost) and there were 5 with a single loss.

Good day in WBB.

On the road at Baylor, I doubt it. TX at home, maybe.
