This team could beat UConn..
Is UConn better? Prob so but listen when I tell u this team could beat them if UConn slipped up at all.
-
Could, yes. But it's about a 10% chance, at best.

I say 35%

I think uconn would have to slip a good bit. We've got talent, but they have more. We have good coaching, but they have better. We do have a little more experience though
-
We would have to be on shooting and not turn the ball over but it's possible if they have an off night.

On a neutral court with nobody watching ... maybe so. You gotta take the intangibles into account ... that's how you win basketball pools.
Taking UConn WBB down may even be more intimidating than taking Bammer down in football.
ETA: As far as "handling the moment" that is.

Don't know what they're like this year, but they were exceptionally fast last year. I just don't see it happening.

Beating UConn is a more formidable task than beating Bama in my opinion. UConn has won the last four national championships. Bama has won one in the last four years (and lost to Ole Miss twice). UConn has been on another level than anyone.
It is pretty improbable but I would love to be the one to break that streak and be a part of history.

My point exactly. Sorta like beating UCLA under Wooden. That was done once or twice ... but in the curent sports climate of today the moment would be overwhelmingly suffocating probably for a team from Starkville.
Not saying that can't be done but that gets the odds down there to probably << 1% chance.

Early in the season UCONN beat FSU by 2 and LSU by 23 .. same LSU team we beat by 26.

UConnot be serious, they would steamroll our asses by 50 again! I want no part of UConn ever. Preacher you're off your meds we have exactly 0% chance of beating UConn.

You should want a part of UCONN because the road to the Natty is through them.
This is a pathetic attitude.

You can call it whatever you like as long as we don't play UConn

So... What? You want someone else to take out UCONN, and then we take out that team. Serious question. What's the end game if not a natty?

Yes, this is what I want. I want a national title but recognize that going through UConn to do it will be next to impossible for this team. If we face them, it better not be until the Final Four.

Yes this is exactly what I want to happen. Somebody else slaughter that Goliath and then we will beat that somebody. We can win a National Championship this year as long as we don't have to face UConn.

We'd put up more of a fight than last year. We are better and they are probably not as good as last year.
