Remember when the ACC was the strongest basketball conference? Take another look, top to bottom the Big East is the much better conference half way through this year, and all of last year.

The UConn Huskies are back and better than ever. Its been a weird week of upset victories and a return to the NATIONAL ranking. Today UConn is going for their seventh victory in a row at the Gampel Pavilion against Georgia Tech.

Hasheem Thabeet, A.J. Price and Jeff Adrien have been putting the Huskies on their back. Georgia Tech with a record of 11-10, but most of those losses were close games, and they are not a team to be taken lightly. Tech ran over the Huskies at the Georgia Dome last year.

Jerome Dyson remains suspended. He can has been removed from the team locker room, but can use the facilities on his own. He is not practicing with his teammates, likely until March 1st at the earliest. Coach Jim Calhoun wants Doug Wiggins to come out strong against GA Tech. Doug was shut down in six minutes of playing time earlier this week in the Dome at Syracuse.
Go Huskies!
