We're not in Kansas anymore Post Game Thread

Well I for one was happy to watch the game after thinking I was going to listen to the radio broadcast. I hope all will be well with Edwards.

Cayman Islands: Bah, humbug.

Wasn’t the prettiest win, but it’s a win. Geno will take this weekend, watch film, get some pieces back and be ready for Texas.

Offense had a bit more life the second half. Defense was more of the problem in the second half.

Thankful for Paige and Aubrey.

Rough couple of games.

Paige/Aubrey-great job The rest-no comment, as I did not see the game.

I did not watch the game, only listened to it. More than once on the broadcast the Huskies were described as looking hungry and like they’d learned from last night. While that did not all translate on the floor, it’s still good to see they were hustling and trying to correct issues from a previous performance.

A win is a win and that was my number #1 wish for the game. So I’m satisfied with that for now.

No back to back losses yet, so I can take a tiny step back from the ledge.

Wished we could have put them away in the 4th quarter, give Kansas credit for hanging around til the end.
Player of the Game IMO is Aubrey Griffin.

You got it right.

I'm not sure what was worse, the play of most of the Huskies, or the announcers on Flo!

The first half was almost unwatchable by both teams. UConn was able to pull out the win only because we have Paige and Aubrey.

We May not drop out of the top 10. If Shade can hit her 3’s, Ice can hit anything, and Paige isn’t beaten to death by game 7 we’ll be OK. Hopefully Edwards is ok. A win is a win.

Over all the tournament was beneficial for UConn. UConn got to play two high quality opponents. The freshmen got some quality minutes, and had to overcome adversity. I think the kids and coaches will learn a lot from the film review of these games. UConn just need to keep practicing and try to get better every day. These games will really prepare he team for Big East conference play.

What do the stars mean in the box score?

 

[jaydee602]

39 fouls called with 45 free throws. It was a sloppy game, but these refs called every bit of contact

 

[Biff]

I wasn't able to watch the game, so can someone explain what's up with Aaliyah? From the box score it doesn't look like she was in bad foul trouble, so why only 19 minutes?

She got an elbow to the side of her head. Hopefully they kept her out as a precaution.

 

[pvdoggy]

Team defense seems pretty bad but with many new moving parts in the lineup, it is probably expected. Hopefully, they will work it out soon.

Say what you want about Paige and Aubrey but the three Samuels hit late in the game I believe, was the turning point in the game.

 

[Redux]

if ... if ... if ..., we’ll be OK.

I think you got it right. A lot of work to do but the team needs to stay together now and keep playing at a competent UConn-ish manner, pretty or not, to keep the spirit and attitude up during the development process. That work can get done with the very very good talent available. You heard it here first : this team will be final four capable, then who can say.

It’s the players on the court at the time the screen shot was taken

I miss Dorka and Lou...game like this, we could have used both of them.
