UConn v. Tulsa — Game Thread

[TitleTown]

This could be the worst game of the year for UConn!

KLS landed on her left foot funny and her ankle has been bothering her, she's done for the night

Samuelson looks like someone who needs time off.

ND down only 1 at 5:48

gee.........I'm not sure the starters are playing all that much better then the subs............this team looks distracted, disinterested whatever...........I would give Tulsa some credit they are playing well at both ends

Kia for 3!!! 69-54 6:34 4th

Here I am watching this ugly UConn game that looks like Geno is trying to lose. On ESPN Notre Dame has taken the lead against the Lady Vols and I have missed all of Notre Dame's comeback.

Kia, KLS, and Crystal are the only ones on this team who should be shooting anything from outside 12 feet.

I made it home just on time for 4th quarter. To all who criticized the bench for their play in the second, it doesn't appear that the starters did much better on the third. I wouldn't judge the bench by one game.

70-57 5:47 4th

ND up 5 @ 4:00 4th

Folks wanted the subs to get more minutes. Well, now you know why Geno hasn’t put them in, especially in tight games

Relax, will ya?

Sorry Meghan, Molly was a liability the complete time she was on the court. Why is Tulsa hitting the three point shots they have made? They've been wide open, many were Molly's responsibility.

I dislike how Geno handled this "bench situation". What did Geno expect the product on the court to look like by putting four bench players in at the same time??!?! How is it going to look different than a blowout game in the 4th quarter.

Let me give some free advise. Mix in some bench players with the starters. Never have all five starters out there together dave the first 3-4 minutes of each quarter.

Another point- the crowd was completely dead!! Come on storrs!! Give the bench some love.

OK so now Geno is mixing in the bench and the team still looks bad.

Summary of this game so far:

Geno hockey-substituted in his bench players in the 2Q. Then he put his starters back in...and that's when things got weird.

 

[TitleTown]

Where is Dangerfield? Stevens? Coach Auriemma looks like he doesn't care whether they win or lose.

Game break - ND now up 5 in the 4th

 

[Blueballer]

Didn't TENN have a 20 point lead tonight?

I just don't get it..

 

[Topsail]

Tulsa is feeling it. They were suppose to lose by 50 but now are only 10 down and are red hot from 3 land.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Z and Collier back in to save the game

 

[CTtoSanDiego]

after this, no one on the bench can complain about not playing... they all had their chance, and came up wanting....

I'll say it again, Geno is coaching to lose this game by his substitution pattern. Why isn't Crystal in the Game? Why has he play Molly and Kyla Irwin for so many minutes? Its obvious they have impacted how the starters have played in this game.
