'91 UNLV was probably better, and they got beaten out, but there haven't been lots of better teams.Originally posted by Chuckinden:
Didn't say that at all. If we play like we did in some of the SEC games, we will lose to a good team. However, the team turned it on in the tourney last year where it counted and I'm hoping that's the case this year too. It's just you don't know until they play the games.Originally posted by JerseyCat84:
In other words, your confidence sky rockets when we blow a team out and dips after a close game...interesting!Originally posted by Chuckinden:
I keep changing my mind. Some days I'm highly confident, other days I'm not. The offensive scheme, or lack thereof, concerns me the most.
It takes some luck to win the championship. Lots of better teams have been beaten out in the tourney.
I'm just cautiously optimistic.
I'm about to write up a big post with data and charts to illustrate this point. I'm so sick of people underrating this team.
