UConn lost convincingly to St. Joe's at home while giving up 96 points.

SMU, Wichita, and Temple are all 2-0 but have not looked the least bit dominant against mostly low major (Ken Pom 200+) comp.

The rest of the league (UCF, USF, Tulsa, ECU, and Tulane) has been unimpressive due to incohesive rosters or just a plain lack of talent.
Kenpom has us as the highest rated AAC team right now at #23. That includes one game without our best player (and no offense installed against a zone) and a legit chance to have beaten OSU on the road.

I am not saying things are perfect...I am just saying things could be a lot worse.

I would imagine by the time we get to St Thomas we could be up to 50%-60% of our offense installed. I hope we worked on zone a little
