was this nugget from the game notes:

Quote:The Bearcats snapped a 14-game losing streak to ranked opponents and won their first in nine chances this year. The last win over a ranked team was an 83-79 victory over No. 20 Memphis on March 6, 2004 to close the regular season.

That seems really hard to believe, doesn't it? There have been a lot of quality wins over that streak, but I guess none were against teams that carried a ranking at that point.

We did beat teams that carried a ranking at one point, just not when we played them. UL, SU, LSU, Memphis, Iowa, and Charlotte. All the ranked teams we have played have mostly been in the top 10.

That's what will be fun playing in the Big East. We will get 5 to 10 opportunities a season to beat ranked opponents, unlike CUSA. We would have had 1 game against Memphis this year - woo-hoo!

The Big East is going to be good for us.
