Reed was absolutely astounding last night.

Who's idea was a 10 pm start? The one that turned into 10:25. Furman or not, expecting it to be tough without Demary. 14-10 @first time out. Was 12-4 a few seconds ago. These Furman guys are starting to feel their oats. 16/15. Horrible foul call on Reibe at 10:05. Free-throw give Furman the...

Who are these guys impersonating our players? We finally score, 4 minutes in. 10-3 We are getting manhandled. This is beyond embarrassing. Our issues with getting the ball inbounded cleanly are really hurting us today. Maybe not as much as our inability to score or to stop them from scoring...

After a scoreless first minute, Solo drives in to break the scoring ice, with an assist from Tarris. Mullins hits a midrange jumper to make it 4 zip! Wtf Alex? Pass to no-one? After another fruitless Gtown possession, Braylon hits a 3 to make it 7 zip! Other than Mullins' lone made three, our...

You cannot put NCAA leniency and UConn in the same thought.

12 minutes in, cruising along and then 2 seconds after either missing or ignoring an obvious travel on Anderson, the ref calls a foul on Reibe's clean block. Ross's steal and nearly full court drive for the dunk... that's the kind of stuff that gets the blood flowin'. Then he went and did it...

This is a tough report to write. UConn started out chucking threes at an abominable rate of success. Other than Demary and Reed, they shot horribly from long range, mid-range and short range. And it got worse in the 2nd half. We rebounded well. But the fact that we had more offensive than...

Reed asserting himself early, but SH doing a better job against him than St J did. Same strategy the Hall used last time around - "foul at will... they can't call 'em all". Around 8 and a half mintues left in the 1st half, 2 possessions in a row we got a man all alone under the rim for a layup...

Neither does discussing bad plays, errant passes, etc. This is a place to express concerns and congratulations both. Nothing we say (type?) here has any effect on the game or the players future efforts. We're just a bunch of fans sharing our opinions with each other. I know for sure I kept...

Tarris starting strong as usual, but sitting early after his first foul. Timeout. Catching my breath. 28 to 11 with 7:27 to go in the half. Darling is one of those dirty players that looks shocked whenever he gets called for a foul. Reed Is in the zone tonight. Oh no. Letting them crawl back...

I wrote a much longer, more detailed take on this game. Then somehow managed to delete it before saving it. Poof. So this morning, I turned on the replay and redid it. But Shorter. A lot shorter. I enjoyed what at first seemed to be a relutance on the part of the refs to use their whistles. But...

Not sure about the foul call putting Creighton on the line at about 3 minutes into the game. Live, it looked to me like the blue guy slipped and slid into our guy. Have to watch it in slomo later. Update. Not a good enough replay to call it one way or the other. Then again, I'm not Jim Breeding...

My Husky Hat has gotten me quote a few "Go UConn!" shouts over the years, and a couple "duck UConn" hollers as well.

TV Coverage didn't pick up the game until about 9 minutes in. UConn in the lead, Solo having himself a game -- a first half, anyway. We'll have to wait and see what the second half brings. To me, Demary looks a little hesitant in the 1st half. Seemed like he was playing 2 to 3 feet farther from...

Early on, Tarris getting tackled every time he touches the ball, and the refs are ignoring it. Looks like it'll be a long night. How long does it take to review a play that is blatantly obvious? One look from the end camera, and there should be no question. It's obvious it went out off Butler...
