UCONN out of the top 10 for the first time in 16 years! Didn’t think them losing to a higher ranked team in single digits would bump them out that far.

My local paper has this sports article in the news today. Quote: UConn has been ranked for 533 consecutive weeks ..... the 2nd longest in poll history .... behind the Tennessee Lady Vols record of 565. The Huskies also haven't lost consecutive games since 1993.

Streak accomplished by Summitt, and unceremoniously ended by Holly.

That consecutive streak of staying in the top 10 over the years had to end at some point in time by some coach. I'm glad Holly is gone too. I think we're back on track with Coach KH.
It's about time for the Lady Vols to start another streak of staying ranked w/the elites.

I believe USF will win by 20 today. Ole Miss defense doesn’t have the same passion it did last year. Their guard play is disorganized as well. Yo has about 8 identical players on the perimeter and just added another with Davis. Bunch of speedy guards who don’t shoot that well and don’t handle that well.

Was watching them the other night and really felt like they’re headed for mediocrity again. Tons of excitement for the last season but just not feeling it. They can’t draw a crowd at all either, thought that might improve since they’re winning. Watched their home game the other night and it looked like practice in there. Dead quiet

Why? She got what she wanted. Starring role for the team she chose with no one to threaten to put her on the bench. TV announcers talking her up as a top draft pick.

She's living her dream.

Bingo, leading them straight to the bottom of team morale just as she did with us. Truly. Fitting role.

The draft talk about her has me in stitches. She’ll be the biggest embarassment ever if they draft her first. She’ll be cut in training camp. That will certainly look good for the league won’t it?

Draft a connie just because and then cut a top draft pick in the first week of training camp 😂

Good game going between Arkansas and Creighton. Raining threes in the second quarter.

Arkansas defense is absolutely terrible. Not even contesting shots. Creighton just passing it around and shooting open 3s. The Arkansas chemistry doesn’t look good. They don’t have that engine like they did with Dungee.

I noticed no Barnum and Ramirez. I wonder what's up with them?

idk. I think Arkansas is having a bunch of players not getting along. They have had trouble with that before. Ramirez was part of the issue. Mid season transfer of Marquesha Davis and then those two missing raises some questions.

Creighton is going to drop 45 on them in the first half. Playing really uninspired right now. Daniels picked up two fouls early so that hurt them. 9 turnovers in the first half which is as many they usually have in a game.

Neighbors sells his program well, but listening to his recruits is making me laugh a little. At this point I don’t see Arkansas ever being a top 5 team in the SEC while he’s there.

Fun coach and fun style, but you cannot win in the SEC with no defense and no rebounding. They could finish in the bottom 3 if Barnum isn’t back soon.

Gonna get crushed on the glass in the SEC. And if they play defense like they are today they’ll lose a lot of games by 20+
