    No one person or team is unbeatable. Sooner or later, there is always someone better. Why not our girls?
    But the fact that we have to point to the greatest upsets in sports history is kind of the point. Again, it is possible. It's just extremely unlikely.

    Uh, no. The two are not comparable.

    Beyond our skill and coaching, I think we're just the team to topple the giant because of our mental and emotional discipline.

    I agree it's unlikely. The reason I have hope is that our ladies have the ability to not get rattled by a mini run. We also have extremely good ball handlers and shooters.

    And Coach VS. What a job!

    The only gigantic upsets you see on there by women are in individual sports not team sports. Victoria Vivians can beat any player on UConn in 1v1 but Vivian's team can never beat UConn's team. Did y'all watch our game vs UConn last year? I am not dogging our team as I said they can beat anyone else in the country not named UConn and they can win a Natty this year if UConn gets upset by somebody else.

    Is this the participation ribbon thread. This is what is wrong with MSU and with the country: We are too weak minded.
    I'm a 2.5 tennis player but if you put me up against Roger Federer, I will beat his ass. If you don't believe me, come play me and I'll beat your ass. No one I will ever play will be better than me, they may beat me, but they will never be better than me.

    I hope all of our players truly believe they can and will beat UConn should they play. We are not the players. I will never understand why fans confuse the two.

    If you play Roger Federer, by all means, believe you're better than him. I, as an observer, will know that you will get destroyed.

    Would Steve Prefontaine vote for Clinton or Trump? Don't answer just speculate

    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.
