We have the UK Ark game as the preliminary show. We should keep a lot of those fans watching our main show with UConn.

Our game will probably have more interest since it can effect so many different bubble teams.

So this is ultimately why I want us to win. I mean, I ALWAYS want us to win but the results will have very little to do with the big dance at this point. The REAL reason to win is to build the brand. Probably one of the most watched games ever. Can't lay an egg. Would be great if we played one of the best games we've ever played and get out of there with an impressive win. Would be amazing for our program. (and then, of course, followed by a nice deep tourney run).

Any win at UConn today would be impressive imo.
Defending national champs having to win to keep their season alive...on their home court of all places.

This game has huge implications for bubble teams. I saw one of the members say they have UCONN in as a place holder. So lots of bubble teams will be on the edge of their seats. Very cool to play such a meaningful game on multiple levels in a tough arena. This is a character building game.

Agreed. But I don't really give a rat's [deleted] about those teams honestly. Certainly draws more eyeballs - only reason I'm interested from that perspective.

We are up to a 5 in the latest bracket matrix. Arkansas is also a 5 so with a win today and an Arkansas loss we could very well be a 5.
Not sure if I would rather be a 6 though to avoid a 1 seed in the sweet sixteen, but why worry about that now...

Bet our game will start on ESPN News due to the length of the UK/AR game
