I actually really like this pick, the Irish are going to be battling for the big east crown this year and they are close to UCONN strength. A lot of people were counting them out of the top 25 but this team is even better than 3-4 years ago when ryan humphries and troy murphy kicked our butts in the NCAAs.
To complete the bottom end of the top 15…
15 - Pittsburgh Panthers
16 - Wisconsin Badgers

11 - Duke Blue Devils
12 - Louisville Cardinals [March 3 @ UofL]
13 - Alabama Crimson Tide [December 4 @ Halton Arena]
14 - Texas Longhorns

Highlight that #13 too because at this moment, not enough locals and fans (outside this board) understand the importance of implications of that home game against Alabama.
If that game is not a screaming sell-out, I’ll be disappointed.
And now, the Top 10 begins…
9 - Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
10 - Connecticut Huskies

Completing the bottom half of the top 10 and beginning the top half of same…
5 - Illinois Fighting Illini
6 - Oklahoma State Cowboys

Our #62 ranking with a predicted 7th place finish in C-USA seems laughable now, but I hope we go out and prove it.
