Top 3 Things You Want To See Against Tennessee Tomorrow Night

[BBallF]

1) A Win!!
2) Paige and Evina to take more shots and not to defer offensive opportunities
3) Tight lock down defense as a team

 

[Hayven]

A win. Also, regret from Tennessee that they didn’t plan for Evina

 

[eebmg]

1) Aubrey Suffocating TN
2) Evina stomping all over TN
3) Paige doing a Diana / Sue on TN

 

[Bayareahusky]

A UConn like performance.... lockdown defense, and good showing for Evina

 

[CocoHusky]

1) How Paige will play in her first nationally televised game.
2) Continue the trend of our 3pt shooting we'll need it.
3) A UCONN curb stomp enough to make Kellie opt out of this series.

 

[Go/huskies]

1. Paige get a double double, she’s been close a few times, it’s going to happen sooner or later.
2. Williams step up, last year she had a tendency to defer Dangerfield and Walker in the bigger games, hopefully she comes out moving well without the ball and looking to score.
3. Ana respond to being benched, even though she came in and gave the team a boost when she came in off the bench vs Providence, she was 8th in the rotation vs Butler, and she didn’t attempt an shots.

I wouldn’t mind seeing Liv dunk @ Tennessee (Parker dunked @ UConn) but I’m sure that wouldn’t happen.

I went on one of the Lady Vols sites earlier today. I couldn't believe the real hatred out there for our UConn team. There were many derogatory remarks about Coach...continually calling him 'Little Geno'....Some of their fans have a lot of hard feelings for things that have happened in prior years. Since there will be fans allowed at Tenn., some remarks stated how difficult they want to make it for our UConn. girls. Real anger! I know that Geno will do his best to keep his young team calm and ready for this crap. I also hope that the game officials will be looking for 'chippiness" during the game....hope that we are ready, since we have had so few games. Let's tune in and root...and WIN!

1. ONO gets some real competition (and responds positively)
2. Strong defense - UConn has let competition get a lot of open shots and dribble drives - shut them down.
3. Win. Sorry to be Captain Obvious, but every win is a good one.

 

[Carnac]

Man..........I'm liking these comments!!

After the outcome of the game is assured - in the last 2 minutes of the game, I agree with Go/huskies, I'd like to see Liv put a bow on this thing with a "thunderous rim rattling" dunk!! A dunk that makes the highlights on SportsCenter. da da da, da da da. Kinda give 'em something to remember us by. Heh heh heh.

Query: Why does Tennessee (or their proxies) continue to make overtures to resume the series with UConn, but steadfastly refuse to issue a PUBLIC apology to Maya and her mother? Those are the terms set forth by Geno that HE said must be met before he would agree to resume the series. I realize that I'm in the minority, Pat Summitt ended the series in 2007, not us. We've moved on and acquired new rivals that we are happy with.

22-4 at the first TV TO.

 

[RockyMTblue2]

1. Neutral refs
2. A 3 ball and lay up party
3. Anna is part of the 3 ball party

 

[JoePgh]

Here is my list:

1. Olivia to stay out of foul trouble contending with Tamari Key.
2. A good start -- don't want to see an orange lead after the first few minutes.
3. Christyn to make jump shots under pressure against a good opponent.

And if I could add a fourth item:

4. Aaliyah Edwards to show that she can make an impact against some serious frontcourt competition. I would think that she should have the talent, and even the experience, to dominate against Kushkituah.

And I want to see this series continue!

 

[The CDR-Ret]

1) 30+ point win;
2) Evina & Paige pair up to drain 15 threes;
3) Aaliyah, Evina, & ONO combine for 10 blocks.

I desire to continue the series, so UCONN can catch UT in total wins as they go on a 33 game winning streak against UT, before the third coach behind the current UT coach cancels the series..... and I live to see the cancellation!

 

[psconn]

Just 2 things for me...
A win.
Evina plays great.

Edit: Oh wait... no injuries!

 

[JonathanXIV]

Seems obvious. A Tennessee loss by 20 points, followed by despairing and outraged posts on Volnation. This isn't a trick question, is it?

 

[dtbtbtb]

1. E to play great
2. Control the boards
3. Win by 20+

 

[hart2hart]

Paige-20 shots please
Evina-Keep playing with your intensity
Aubrey-Keep it going girl
P.S. I love this thread!!

3) Smackdown

 

[SLY63]

1. Score Over 75
2. ONO and AE outscore TN in the paint
3. Paige 20 pts, 10 assists

 

[Tonyc]

1. I want to see a clean called game
2. No harassment by the players
3. UConn win by 30+

 

[veryolddog]

1. A Win
2. Evina with the best game ever because I like payback.
3. UConn with a 55 per cent shooting game.

 

[Urshurak]

1. A win for sure.
2. Evina rocking it!!!
3. Aubrey continuing to dominate.

for fun, I went to the TN forums to peruse the TN vs UConn thread. Absolutely hysterical. You should all go check it out. Some of those posters are beyond delusional.
