In response to The Lion King
Temple should've been a win. Villanova's been our "marquee win" a couple times, but they werent a top 5 team. What win would you count as marquee? Beating Temple wouldn't really count by past standards. Maybe Colorado would have, but they're just a much better team than Penn was that night. Duke's Duke. You don't want to count Drexel or Hawaii, which is fine w/ me.
This is as deep as the Big 5 has been in a long time, and I'd still be surprised if we ended up 0-4.
All I know is what I've seen from this team, and this isn't a below-par team in my mind. And unless you've seen them play, I just don't think it's fair to label them that way. If anything, our top teams of the last 10 years have LOST games to teams they should beat, and only Temple falls there this year (and even that wasn't a Davidson or Delaware type "sure thing").
