Another Interesting Stat to Think About

We are 5-0 and yet we have been behind at some point in every game. I wonder how many of the other undefeated teams can say the same thing? I would think that is very unusual.

Obviously that stat can be looked at several different ways. On one hand, we have been dancing in the mine field for the entire season and if we keep dancing, how long can we avoid stepping on the pressure plates?

On the other hand, it shows how well we have handled adversity. Being battle tested has its advantages. If we find ourselves there again we will know how to deal with it.

What you say is true but you failed to mention we've improved steadily throughout. The miami game was as complete a game as we've had all year. It makes me expect an even more complete game vs Duke.

I think the early adversity helped the team mature. Getting out of it with wins was a bonus. I hope they continue to get better each week (while winning!) until the season is over.
