'So You're Telling Me I've Got a Chance'


Here's today's story from the Register, focusing on how UConn still has plenty of opportunity left on its schedule. They've still got a chance. A slim chance, to be sure. Obviously, the Huskies have to play much, much better to take advantage. But, being 14-9 with a bunch of potential marquee wins left on your schedule is better than being 14-9 without much chance at improving your lot.

And here's the Top 25 I submitted last night. It's getting tougher and tougher to pick the last seven or eight teams. There really are about 20 teams to choose from for those slots.

1. Kansas
2. Syracuse
3. Kentucky
4. Villanova
5. West Virginia
6. Purdue
7. Georgetown
8. Kansas State
9. Duke
10. Michigan State
11. New Mexico
12. Tennessee
13. Gonzaga
14. Wisconsin
15. Ohio State
16. Texas
17. Brigham Young
18. Georgia Tech
19. Butler
20. Northern Iowa
21. UNLV
22. Texas A&M
23. St. Mary’s
24. Baylor
25. Temple

  1. Which Final Four team from last year has a better chance of making the tourney this year, UNC (13-10) or UConn(14-9)? Both have a bunch of big games coming up.

  2. "So you're telling me there's a chance" is the quote, I believe.
    Still a great reference.

  3. As we sit here today, UConn has a better chance than UNC. But that could change within the next few days.
