agree dangerous fear games lost maybe paper people question says seed six teams
I agree we've been inconsistent, we've lost games on paper we should have won, but there's no question that teams fear us in the Tournament. There's no question that people say we're the most dangerous six seed maybe ever. There's still that aura, that swagger, that thing that people see in March. We have it, there's no question about it. If someone says we don't, they're lying.
