[QUOTE="JFGsCoffeeMug, post: 1707452, member: 74571"] I think one of the challenges here is that basically everyone can agree that last year's team was dominant in-conference, but then faltered early in the NCAA tournament. The simplest analysis would be that this team needs to be even more dominant in-conference in order to make it deeper into the NCAA tournament. I happen to think that's incorrect. But I think that might help explain some of the angst over bad losses and closer-than-anticipated wins. People are trying to project (with woefully incomplete information) whether this team will make it out of the first weekend. There's a way of looking at the early data and thinking "no." [/QUOTE]
