Why is uconn not ranked

UConn opens Big East play on Dec. The Huskies are the only Big East team in the Top DePaul did receive six points in the voting. The Razorbacks finished the season ranked No. Our Network. Maryland is No. Hays: As the resident mid-major lobbyist, I'm contractually obligated to advocate for both ends of the South Dakota derby, beginning with South Dakota State's trip to South Dakota on Jan.

But as for the broader canvas, Oregon at Oregon State on Jan. It comes a week after each team plays Stanford. It is also the second game in the home-and-home Civil War series between the Ducks and Beavers, with the two teams playing two days earlier at Oregon.

That means either Sabrina Ionescu and Oregon will go for a road win in Corvallis to sweep the series and reestablish itself as the team to beat this season or Mikayla Pivec and Oregon State will try to follow a huge road win with a sweep that would have ripple effects throughout the sport. Hays: The Pac has the edge in headliners at the moment. That's true objectively -- the league has four teams ranked in the top But it's also a compelling case subjectively.

With the in-state rivalry in Oregon, Ionescu's general star power and Stanford's history, the interplay between the teams at the top, with UCLA as spoiler, is some of the season's best narrative drama. The Pac is just more interesting at the top. The question is how good are Arizona, Arizona State and Colorado? Because right now those three teams are and only No. The SEC middle class, by contrast, includes No. I'm not sure about the Buffaloes, who pulled this trick a year ago before going in the league, but the Arizona schools -- especially the Wildcats -- tip the scales already loaded with the top four teams in favor of the Pac Creme: The Pac is better at the top with three top-five teams, but in these discussions the winner of the debate is typically the league with the most depth and the conference that has better teams at the bottom.

Most years that is the SEC. However, this season the Pac wins that one-on-one matchup as well. Schedules aside, everyone in the Pac is at least two games above. Washington State, which sits last in the Pac at , was reasonably competitive with the SEC's best in South Carolina and had a fourth-quarter lead on Miami right before Christmas.

And if it even means anything, the Pac holds a advantage in games featuring teams from both leagues. Skip to main content Skip to navigation. UConn Huskies. Dawn Staley fulfills promise, shares South Carolina championship net with Black coaches. South Carolina Gamecocks.
