Rochester 82  NYU 69

The UAA is brutal.  After next weekend, either Brandeis or NYU will be 1-2.  Rochester is feeling pretty good, 3-0 in the conference.  But on Friday, they go into St. Louis to play a Washington team which does not want to go to 0-2.  Unfortunately for Rochester, they have the weakest travel partner in the UAA, CMU, which is winless in its last 50 UAA games.  So they will fast a well rested Chicago team on Sunday.  The Yellowjackets may head home 3-2 in the conference.

At what point is anyone here going to give Rochester even just a little respect? They just beat 2 straight top 25 teams in one weekend. And they didn't just beat them, they dominated. They were up by as much as 18 on top 10 Brandeis before they started coasting to the W. NYU was even worse, going up 28 before Rochester was able to clear their bench and get everyone some action. And there isn't one contributor, the shooters carried them on Friday and the post took control on Sunday. They go 11 deep without hesitation against every opponent they play.  They've been to the Sweet Sixteen 3 of the last 4 years and the final four in 2 of those years. What more do they need to put on their resume for you people to give them something more than "decent team" compliments? As far as I know, they're #3 in the country and completely controlling everyone they play. I think it's fair to say they're the favorite in this league.
