We knew UConn was down and Louisville was down...So were is that tough game???Why not play like texas and Villanova Syracuse teams you knew were good?

Louisville was 19..dont think that UCONN was ranked top ten but i could be wrong...al i was saying is why not play top teams instead of drexel or something

We "knew" UConn was down and Louisville was down? Wow, that's amazing, considering every poll and publication out there had both teams ranked in the preseason top 20. When UK made out the schedule, they didn't know that both those teams would go in the tank.

Let's say UK scheduled Villanova or Syracuse, since we "knew" they were good. What if either of them didn't live up to their preseason expectations either? You can't wait until the season starts to see who the elite teams are, then try to make the schedule out. You do the best you can to predict who will offer your team a challenging game, and that's what the UK folks did.

And don't even bring up Drexel. You know as well as I do that EVERY elite school plays teams like that, not just UK. Kansas, Syracuse, Villanova, etc., they've all got cupcakes on the schedule. NOBODY plays all tough games, otherwise you would have nothing left by the end of the year.
