Does Uconn really care they are in the NIT's ?

[Betallsports]

It happens all the time. Teams that "Wanted" to be in the Real Tournament ..... Get's in these smaller ones, and Only looking to go Home.

Is UConn one of thise teams ??

Damn good question BA, I'm thinking about playing them tonight, 3 looks like a short number, but Boatright looked like shit the last game, kinda like he didn't give a damn, so your question is very valid.

Arizona State traveling cross country to boot. I think they have only won 2 away/neutral site games all year. Are they motivated at all? I think this game is impossible to cap. Hard to trust either team.

Yeah, good points. My heart tells me the Huskies, my wallet hasn't chimed in yet, LOL. I think we better call Willie.

Probably dont care but I would think the players want to win still.. it would seem far more embarrassing making an early exit in NIT than being snubbed the NCAA I believe.

I think it's tough for the defending Nat Champ to get knocked down to a lower tourney. JMHO

Wasn't Boatwright quoted as saying he didn't come back this year to go to the NIT?

YEP, and that's my point, he scored a whopping 7 points in game 1. There's no heart there if ya ask me.

Boat is listed as probable, I think he's healthier than last game where he was coming off the injury if I recall. Purvis is not gonna shoot lights out again, but I like sportsfanatics points above about Zona State flying across country. You know the rule of thumb in the NFL, ALWAYS bet against west coast teams coming to the east, this might apply tonight, Hartford not an easy destination to get to.

I don't see any way possible that we (ASU) can beat them on the road, especially after the way we tanked the USC game in Pac 12 tourney..lots of people calling for Herb's scalp..seems like reverse line movement here, that's the only thing that scares me..otherwise I see UCONN rolling and 3 is a small number

03/17	G	Ryan Boatright	shoulder	"?"	30	17.8	4.2	4.0	1.4	0.3
9:11am	is "?" Wednesday vs Arizona State.

If this guy ends up missing this game it would be quite pathetic.. wont be due to injury, but because he is a quitter.

Preaching to the choir Murph. If he wants to play, there's no way in hell Zona State hangs with these guys. I'm gonna roll the dice, shit, they call it gambling for a reason. GLTA at the RX!
