CHAMPS
PRESENTED BY Things just don’t seem quite right in the women’s basketball landscape when UConn isn’t ranked in the top five of the Associated Press poll. That’s probably because it hasn’t happened in over a decade. After losing to Louisville last week, the Huskies fell to fifth in the AP poll. It’s UConn’s worst ranking since Feb. 12, 2007. The Huskies entered the top five on Feb. 5, 2007, and were then ranked third on Feb. 19. Since then, Geno Auriemma’s side has been ranked fourth or better. RANKINGS: The Huskies’ recent run of dominance began that following season, in 2007-08. UConn grabbed the No. 1 AP spot on Dec. 24, 2007 and held it for seven weeks. Since then, here’s the stretches UConn has had the No. 1 spot: Feb. 18, 2008 to Jan. 3, 2011 (1,051 days) Feb. 21, 2011 to Oct. 29, 2011 (251 days) Dec. 31, 2012 to Jan. 7, 2013 (8 days) Nov. 1, 2013 to Nov. 17, 2014 (382 days) Feb. 16, 2015 to Nov. 1, 2016 (625 days) Dec. 5, 2016 to Oct. 31, 2018 (696 days) In short: UConn has been really good for a long time and no other team has experienced the type of run the Huskies have been on for the past 12 years. WOMEN'S BASKETBALL: UConn began the 2006-07 season ranked eighth in the poll and started making a slow climb into the top five. They were ranked as high as No. 2 on March 5, and finished the season at the No. 4 spot. The Huskies went 32-4 that year and lost to LSU in their second NCAA tournament game. The next season, in 2007-08, the Huskies grabbed the No. 1 AP poll spot and made the first of 11 consecutive trips to the Final Four. UConn captured national championships in six of those runs.
