So 40% of you losers think we'll drop a game before UCONN. I expect even more of you think we'll drop that game. So my question- if you could hand pick which game we lose (and by implication we win all the rest) which would it be?
Georgia Tech (beat ya to it)
Tonight they demonstrated they can beat a tall rim protector,they might beat UC.
Importantly, this assumes it is the ONLY loss (so if we lose to someone other than UCONN we beat UCONN).
Those picking UCONN wouldn't trade a L at Butler for a W vs UCONN? What if it was @UCONN?
To me the prestige of a Q1A W w a Q1 road loss makes a better resume than vice versa?
I can't believe I'm saying this, but I'd pick the game at DePaul. We need to maximize our Q1 wins to be able to get a 1-seed ahead of Iowa State or a second SEC team. We have 6 Q1 games left and are 4-2 currently. If we can get to 8-4 or 9-3 in Q1, I think a road Q2 loss is forgivable. If that Q1 mark is 7-5, though, we might not have enough heft to overcome an SEC team that is 10-6 or 11-7 in Q1.

I hope they find the strength to live free and express themselves if so. Everyone deserves to be happy as their true selves inside and out.

remember where that came from? yup..."Dave's not here"
when those first came out, I couldn't believe my mom and dad allowed us to first of all, purchase them, secondly, purchase ALL of them. and no, I never did try to utilize the free gigantic rolling paper in the "big Bambu" it took a gigantic amount of "tobacco" and from what I've been told, didn't add to their "experience" but it was cool to say you did it.
I might have still have 2 or 3 of their albums packed away with my best of the carpenters and Carly simon album
