the rix mix

What a week for the Rutgers Lady Knights. No. 14 Rutgers (9-2) beat then-No. 8 Tennessee at home last Wednesday and then snapped No. 4 Texas' 41-game home winning streak on Sunday, rallying from an 18-point second-half deficit. Tonight they knocked off previously undefeated #1 LSU 51-49. One might say they won "ugly," but it doesn't matter. They still have to play #9 Ohio State in two weeks, otherwise it's two months of the playground bruisefest known as the Big East regular season, which in turn is a warmup for my ultimate sports fantasy of a final four of four Big East teams in both men's & women's NCAA tournaments. In the Big East, a national ranking only infuriates the unranked teams, who believe that a losing league record simply means they probably don't belong in the top ten. It's also rumored that Big East bb players have their elbows surgically sharpened.
