    No kidding, it'd be a blow out.

    I know they are just girls but come on...

    It's not just about girls but about a semi pro TEAM.

    They've been playing together for a long time and are coached very well.

    I can already see guys getting leveled by picks.

    I totally understand and agree with that but I think the reason it's even a debate is because most of the people are like, they are girls.

    When the title says "a bunch," does that mean like 10-15 of us versus 5 of them? Of course we'd beat them.

    But that's crazy talk.

    4 of us could probably take them.

    Oh, it's definitely true. I don't know much about UConn's scout team, but Tennessee's is made up of ex-lower level college and Juco players. I don't think they actually play many games, but practices are competitive.

    I used to play with a bunch of the girls from Texas when they were pretty good, and they had a hard time keeping up with some of the better Rec players. I think they only chance they would have is if they just started lighting it up from downtown.

    I am not sure really whether we could or not ,but i do know this UCONN team that has a 89 game winning streak is pretty unreal ...not only are the winning , but dominating their opponents.

    it's unfortunate to see a record like this get knocked down because of the gender of the players involved...

    It's not that they are girls, it's that they are comparing themselves to a men's basketball team.

    Two different sports. Imo shouldn't be comparable.

    I expect that if we included every so often posters we could find enough athleticism to run with these girls.

    Anyone who thinks an average or even a better than average group of us in their 20's-40's who are weekend warrior types wouldn't get smoked is either really misogynistic or really delusional.

    I think I read that ClutchCityReturns is a good dunker.

    Could he not just give these girls facials all day?

    no, they are comparing their accomplishments to a feat accomplished by a men's basketball team, in which they met and surpassed.

    did they not set a record for most consecutive victories in collegiate sports?

    repped and a great big amen.

    Look, I don't care who you are, what you are, etc... to win 89 STRAIGHT times at anything, even at cards or checkers or whatever is frigging AMAZING. I know that Geno can be an ass but people need to give them their props here and quit focusing on that it is a "women's basketball team". :rolleyes:

    Well in that case we should always mention the Comets when we talk about professional basketball championships.

    Did they not win 4 professional basketball championships?
