I was hardly convinced of this, but my preseason prediction was that this year would be a bounce back from last year, and it would be more similar to Fran's previous teams.
That said - I figured they'd be more of a bubble team, having to scrap and claw for an NCAA bid rather than playing for seed. So in that sense, yes, I am surprised.
As spider just said, though - still a lot of work to do. So I'm not getting TOO cozy just yet. If we get down to 3-4 games to go and we're still at least holding steady, then OK. I'll feel pretty good.
Up next: @Rutgers, and any road game always has me on pins and needles. I don't care who the opponent is.
