Message: [QUOTE="Fairfield Fan, post: 2052984, member: 6911"] St. John's was supposedly the last "unranked" team UConn lost to. But that is rather misleading, since subsequently St. John's was ranked in the Top 25, and remained there, if memory serves. So it really was a top team, but just hadn't received the recognition yet. We're seeing AAC teams play UConn increasingly tough. This comes after Temple scored 51 points on UConn in the second half of their loss. Temple just knocked off South Florida, to take sole possession of second place in the conference. Last year, USF played UConn tougher than any team in the regular season schedule. And now we see a very scrappy Tulane team go the distance. Seems as though UConn is stimulating the development of the entire conference's women's basketball system. Just as UConn did with the Big East. But watch out on Wednesday. Temple will come in loaded for bear! With Nurse out, with KLS still under the weather, and Saniya and Crystal not making up the difference, it could be a very, very tough game. [/QUOTE]
