Bob, if there's one sport where I've learned it's foolish to look at point differential as a barometer of how to handicap that team for its next game, it's basketball. Unlike other sports where you might slowly chip away at a big lead, in basketball you just "go for it", normally resulting in either a momentum-shifting surge or a blowout. Conversely, I'm sure we can name all sorts of teams that hit buzzer beaters en route to winning national championships.

But, yes, as for UConn, ever since Calhoun's return, they've looked fantastic and I wouldn't want to playing them in the early rounds no matter what their seed.
