Screw Syracuse. I dont want to help their program at all. Georgetown and UConn never had a series of games that got nasty or were memorable (for me). I would pick Pitt (but they didnt make the cut evidently). We had some great games against them in the last 10 years both in and out of the BE tourney. Khalid on the scorers table with his UConn jersey for the crowd - crazy fun times.

Ray versus AI? That time got pretty nasty
 
1) Louisville :) (they will be an old BE team we used to play next year)
2) Cuse
3) St John's, love going to MSG
4) Georgetown
5) maybe Marq

nobody else

Syracuse causes the most excitement. G'town, Nova & St. John's for the big city exposure. Those games make most sense.

We don't need Nova as long as we and Temple are in the AAC.
 
GTOWN more for national and BC as local rivalry.also a home and away with St johns wouldn't hurt.
 
Syracuse until Coach B retires. After that they become irrelevant in upstate New York. After that G-TOwn.

I don't see what Syracuse brings that Georgtown or UL or even Nova wouldn't. Unless it's in MSG or Barclays, why play in bumf$&@ NY
 
I don't care about any of them. Maybe Marquette if Buzz is there.
 
1. Cuse
2. St. John's - if they are top 25, if not G'Town here
3. BC - if they beat Harvard & Holy Cross two years in a row
4. G'Town
5. Nova -
4. Pitt - we had some great games but are AFC North
5. PC - always play us tough

Says the UConn fan who's Huskies are 5-7 against those Friars in the last 12.

Actually, its 6-6.

I like how you went back 12 games. Especially since UCONN has won 3 of the last 4 and 4 of the last 6 in PC's "Super Bowl" game of every season.

Screw Syracuse.......largest group of a-wipe fans and we don't need to put ourselves in that OOC schedule with LeMoyne, Concordia St, Oswego St, St Lawrence and Colgate!!

Hahaha. Agreed. Huskies in DC? I'm all about that
 
1. St. Johns (recruiting/exposure)
2. Georgetown (recruiting/exposure)
3. Providence (proximity)
4. Syracuse (just love their fans whinie comments when we beat them)
5. BC (we can always use another easy win)

Thanks for your interest in UConn Huskies National Championship program crotchrot...........come on back and spew some more it's fun here!!
 
I have no problem adding PC to our schedule. I'd offer them the same deal we've had with Fairfield the past couple of decades.

Cuse at the Garden is a must!
 
I love the idea of playing Syracuse at MSG. There is nothing negative that can come out of that situation. The one thing about the Big East I will personally miss the most is going to games at MSG for the tournament. We always had wars with them and the 6 OT game just brought the rivalry to the next level and like it or not...that game defines the UConn-Syracuse rivalry. Every time we played them since, that game has been mentioned in the telecast.

I never want to play Pitt (scum) again and- since it would have to be in the NCAAs- it appears my wish is coming true.

Gtown and Quse. Only because I despise Gtown as a team (Pe- Toowey!) and Quse's fans. Once Lville leaves that would be a great series.
 
I've been watching BE games since the first year, yet I'm indifferent to playing all of these schools now. It used to be a thrill playing a top 10 Gtown or Cuse team back in the 80's, but those underdog days are gone forever.It's more interesting playing top teams from other areas of the country.
 
I say play University of Colorado! I know that's not part of the rules for this survey. I don't care. It's all about me. I live in Colorado and would like to drive to a game.

From what I've heard; PC could offer to play every game in Storrs and the current admin would say no thanks.

Have them offer it then, bc it hasn't been. Not at all what I have heard.
 
What PC fans don't understand is that we can and are scheduling much better programs than them out of conference. Indiana, Florida, Stanford, Texas, Washington, Maryland, and Kansas etc. I think I read somewhere that UNC is also interested in another home and away series, and look for others to pop up for 2015. If it was just a matter of strength of schedule sure PC would be an upgrade over some of our cupcakes. The thing is we generate $ from those home cupcakes, and why would we give that up to travel to the DD center? So unless they agree to play every game in our house it makes zero sense to play Providence.
 
I've been told by a few different people that UConn has zero interest in playing PC; at home or away; now that they aren't conference mates.
 
I read the cuse board. Its a problem for me. I can't stop and it brings nothing good. I won't bring any of that back here.

But I will say this: The way they orange fans are reveling in "the death" of UConn basketball and prematurely burying us feels like the greatest taunt of the mojo gods of all time. It would not surprise me if they summoned their own punishment. JB's last game ever a Loss to Kevin Ollie in March.
