With the UConn Huskies men’s basketball team back at No. 1, Storrs, Connecticut is officially back as the college basketball capital of the world as the UConn women are still the unanimous No. 1 team in the women’s basketball land.
It’s the 14th straight week in the AP Poll and 16th straight in the ESPN/USA Today Poll that the Huskies were an unanimous No. 1 selection.
And now with conference tournaments starting to get underway and the NCAA Tournament looming, we will be hearing a lot about a team’s RPI rating. And just to think about 5 years ago, we never really heard them talk about this in women’s basketball. Oh how the game has grown.
