Running around his … wait, what?

I don't either, BUT their losses are to Missouri State (which is 9-18), UNC Greensboro, Norfolk State, UNC Ashville and Longwood. I guess their best win is UAB??? and they didn't play any Power conference team close.

Why not 23-3 Drake who beat Miami, Vanderbilt and Kansas State and whose three losses are by 4, 7 and 2?

Fair point, though beating Miami isn't much to brag about this year. Vandy/K State are pretty legit wins though.

The emperor doesn't have any clothes and as of today UConn doesn't have a team that belongs in the tournament. Getting skull-dragged at home by Villanova isn't a great look.

... then they played the rest of the game.


When I turned it on, Villanova was providing an epic bed shipting the last five minutes.

Indeed, although that gets them just a season split with Nova.

But there just ain't a lot of there there when you look at the Huskies. The graphic listing their three best wins had Marquette (very good) Creighton (fine) and Gonzaga (itself starting to smell of fish). They had a BAD loss to Seton Hall the other day. They famously went 0-3 in Hawaii, but even worse that includes Colorado and Dayton, neither of which are sniffing the big dance.

Huskies can probably survive losses to St. John's and Marquette. If they lose one of the other three or get bounced by an also-ran at the Garden, I wouldn't take them.

Colorado is not just bad; the Buffs are 1-13 in the Big 12.
And if I recall correctly, the format of the Maui Invitational was to blame. Rather than blaming himself or his team, Hurley blasted the Maui Invitational. Expletive him.

Speaking of teams throwing a rod, what has happened to Kansas?
