The schedule setup didnt help

[Sean Miller Fan]

I don't want to make excuses but this 10 game stretch featured us playing the top 5 ACC teams, 3 of them on the road, then ACC #7 UNC twice with only 3 non-NCAAT type teams mixed in. This is our schedule for the remainder

vs ACC #18
vs ACC #14
@ ACC #15
vs ACC #10
@ ACC #3
@ ACC #16
vs ACC #16

We needed some of these "get-right" games sprinkled in. We played all the good teams in a 35 day stretch. Went 2-8 and blew the season. No excuses but pretty unlucky because I think if the schedule was reversed, we would have been 10-0 going into those last 10 and won 4 or 5 of them.

Yea but 2 things on that:

1. UVa is vastly improved. If we played them on Jan 7, it's an easy W.

2. The Monday night, 1 day off, dead crowd took us off our game a bit.

Yeah, that was the problem.
