It must be so exciting to be a UConn fan and watch your team beat the dregs that is the aac
competition.

Not any difference than beating the ol Big East teams of which Cincy was one. UConn also plays tough out of conference teams. But thanks for your concern.

What's the motivation for another team's fan to post on this board. I don't get it.

I was just looking at the B12, and it's not that far behind the AAC. It has 4 RPI top 50 teams, but Texas is sinking like a stone and Iowa State doesn't look particularly impressive, either. I don't think it will be a 1-bid conference, but 2 isn't out of the question. What's going on there?
