Hasn't happened since 1976 (remember the Hoosiers from that year).

For all of the "no dominant team" talk, that's pretty remarkable. The possibility of a loss-less team is as realistic as its been in a long, long time.

So far Syracuse is the only team that really hasn't had a big scare, so I would think that 3 teams going 20-0 is quite remarkable.

I'd qualify being tied with St. Francis with a minute to go as a big scare. You could make the argument for the Pitt and Miami game as well.

But if that's it out of 20 games, that is pretty scare-free.

It's going to be some bullshit if someone goes undefeated.

i dunno. that was close. But SU never had that one game where they were behind by a lot for a majority of the game and had to fight back for the win

I didn't see the St Francis game, however did watch Pitt and Miami and even though the games were close, those last 5 minutes seem to be Syracuse's forte. I like Syracuse a lot, because they play great team basketball. Not even sure if any of their players will be 1st round picks. Maybe Fair and Ennis. At any rate, they are big and great on the offensive boards and simply wear out other teams.

Fair enough. I think WSU is the only team that was behind by a "lot". Zona has had a couple big deficits, but those were very early in the game. They've trailed in the 2nd half in a handful of games, but IMO none of those were really "comebacks" in the typical sense of the word.

yeah not calling them comebacks really. Just games where zona didn't look like they were in total control. perfect example.....Zona michigan

UM held onto the lead from 7 min into the 1st half all the way to the final 2 min of the game

Yeah, I get that. This would be my list of scares/struggles:

Zona: Drexel*, UNLV, @Michigan, Utah, @Stanford
WSU: @SLU, @ Alabama, @Mo St
SU: St. Francis, Miamia
