Yeah, I figured such. You Chicken Littles are no where to be found. You'll come back the next time UConn has a hiccup, I'm sure.

Good to see UConn string 2 great games together. A W against UL on Saturday would be a nice way to finish the week and keep up the run of success. Oh, and vault them back into the top 25!

Let's see - DD is soft, OC should transfer, TO should play Div III and KO needs to get 10 more years of experience before being a head coach at Div I

I'm here eating a rather tasty crow sandwich, thank very much

I'll admit after the Texas Tour, I was worried we wouldn't make the tourny and if we did it would be a double digit seed with not a lot of hope. The last couple of games have certainly been great and we look like we're playing much better ball.

I was also in the camp that Ollie could be great but definitely needs experience. I still believe that, but he's done a lot to make me think he's further along than what I was thinking.

Also, didn't know at the time that Nolan had been battling the flu for a while and Napier's knee had been an issue. It looks like those things are better and Brimah has definitely made some huge gains (even with limited foul caused minutes tonight).

Things are definitely looking better.

For those who were hoping for a split this week, screw you. Let's get two wins vs top 20 teams!

I'm proud of you. I've had my share of crow eating moments. Now learn your lesson. It's okay to criticize our Huskies, but when doing so never lose hope that they'll figure it out.

The same team that looked like crap in Texas is the same team that won some onion games this very same season. It's not like they hadn't shown some metal this season. They have their flaws, but also have some elite talent.

I hadn't read anything, but I knew Nolan had the flu before the first Texas game and both Bazz and Boat looked a bit hobbled for a few games.

Nonetheless, they didn't seem to be playing with the same intensity that they have the past two games. They're running their offense with a lot more energy and executing it much better than they did in Texas.

fwiw, Jerry Palm on CBSSports moved UConn up to 5 line in Cuse's bracket, with UW Green Bay, St. Louis and Ohio St.

Makes you kinda wish the season was over today and Palm is dead on with his picks. With the current UConn team, I'd take that pod any day.

BS. Ban him and unleash HFD on the football and realignment board. This is bibically epic.
He's got a job. It's his job to put the blue T's on all the chairs before the Ville game.

I don't blame anyone for a little freak out after Houston and SMU, but if that's the only time they post...

I is just strange that some posters only come here when we are stinking up the gym for a few games. Really really strange.

It makes more sense when you accept that they are trolls
