Message: [QUOTE="bags27, post: 2038632, member: 6761"] A UConn loss is neither good nor bad for WCBB. Did the 2014 loss to Stanford make a difference in anyway except to UConn's own continuous game winning record? It didn't change anyone's perception of the game, it didn't draw more fans to other games, recruits to other teams, etc. A UConn loss might be considered good for UConn. Geno himself actually thought this for the first dozen games or so. We often think that the pressure of being undefeated gets in the way of winning when it's really most important, which is why the undefeated Colts pretty much tanked a game before the playoffs....but they lost in the playoffs anyway. Fact is, this UConn team can handle the pressure of the streak. In fact, it gives them swagger. [/QUOTE]
