UConn Sucks, No One Notices

[simon]

I think this is flying under the radar around the nation and perhaps
speaks volumes of the level of mystique of the Husky program, no one
seems to notice just how bad they are this season. Have you seen
anything on Sportscenter about how the Huskies are losing to the likes
of Depaul and Providence and are currently riding a 5 game losing
streak? Nobody made a big stink of the fact the Huskies fell out of
the top 25 for the first time practically in this millenium. Think the
news would have been different if it were a UCLA, UNC or Duke type? Or
am I overblowing this.

And 8 of the last ten. I noticed, with a glee that is bordering
on sinful. Not quite as good as UNC's 8-20, but hey...

Once you're out of the top 25 you are pretty much irrelevant to
the talking heads. Especially when you're not even getting votes!

So, like, yeah. They noticed UCONN sucks and are ignoring them,
which is profoundly different from not noticing at all. They
just aren't rubbing it in.

Unfortunately Syracuse seems to be trying to out-do them.

I dunno... Seems that how bad UConn is gets mentioned several times a week
in games I watch, articles I read and podcasts I listen to... So yes, UConn
seriously sucks, but no, I don't think this is remotely flying under the
radar...
