The Huskies are in Philadelphia as they begin a key four-game stretch towards the end of the season.
A season-defining stretch for the Huskies begins tonight in Philadelphia when UConn takes on Temple for bragging rights in the American Athletic Conference.
Though both teams sit below SMU in the conference standings, the Mustangs are not eligible for the postseason, including the AAC tournament. A win for the Huskies (17-6, 7-3) would improve their conference record to 8-3, putting them a half-game ahead of Temple and in the driver's seat for the top seed in the conference tournament.
