It is actually getting into teams heads.   Collins mentioned yesterday how nervous and overwhelmed his team was to start the game.  I have to attribute some of that to the aura of our team and the fact that we blow through every non con opponent (except Kansas) by double digits for 2 full years.   BigEast teams don't come out shook against us.  They mostly lose to us, just the same, but they don't play like they are a HS team playing the showtime Lakers. I'm glad we use it to our advantage.

I think San Diego State, just on the fact they were in a title game with us last year ( and hung with us late in the game)  won't come out with the schpilkes like other teams obviously have.   If we make it through this round, the other teams left are generally too good to be frightened, but depending who it is I would say that there will be a little something in the back of their heads too.     Getting off to great starts in games always has the potential to get teams flustered.
