Back in the American

Wednesday night was a gutsy performance by the Huskies. The average fan does not know that Harvard is a great basketball team with a great coach.   The Crimson is an NCAA Tournament team and will be a tough out come March.  This win will help the RPI in March.

Yes, UConn had to deal with turnovers during the first half and poor shooting in the second half and then there was final sequence of events in the final minute,  but they pulled it off.  Perhaps this was the best team win of the season.

Tonight they will be challenged by UCF.  Gampel will be close to a sellout.  The American is back open for business.  Win tonight and the Huskies are only two games out of first place.  Cincinnati looks strong and are undefeated, and Memphis and Louisville both have a loss.  If UConn wins the next three, they will be up there challenging for the conference crown.  The only thing good about a true round-robin schedule,  you determine a true champion.

Go Huskies!
