Las Vegas - If anyone is wondering about that $500,000 Seattle bet that lost when the Eagles went for and made the 2-point conversion, it WASN'T ME!!!

USC comes into this matchup with Connecticut at 3-0, but wins over Cal-Baptist, Montana and BYU is not getting anyone jacked up. Dan Hurley, yea, from THAT Hurley family, is ready to make some noise in the Big East. And lemme tell you why Hurley's third season at UConn is gonna be special. He took over a losing program at Rhode Island, a team that was 7-24 prior to his arrival. His first year in Kingston was UGLY, as in 8-21. Year two was 14-18, and then in his third year, when he had HIS guys on the court, the Rams posted an outstanding 23-10 record. So, since this is year three, and the kids are mostly his recruits, we're expecting a big fat bunch of Ws. And while this is not a home game for the Huskies, it's only 30 miles from their campus at Storrs to Uncasville. It's just a LITTLE BIT further to USC's campus in Los Angeles. Gimme those Huskies for the Money.
