12-13 Kick-off: UConn vs. AIC Game Thread

[UConnSwag11]

we lost kids, we have new faces and most importantly a new coach, give it time... hearing this already...wheres leon? is he hurt?

 

[Palatine]

The video is the scoreboard, so we see no FTs. sucks

"Daniels into the lane and stolen by JABituh."
Holy God.
This reminds me of the Chevy Chase show - it was so bad, by about half way through I couldn't stop laughing.
Daniels appears to be our best rebounder.
Olander picks up where he left off last December stomping cupcakes.

u think the people in the stands would rather of stayed home with no power or electricity?

 

[61cygni]

Giffey is one of the few positives, he looks good!

You don't expect TO to be backing people down and knocking down 3's when the Big East season rolls around? How dare you!

Score please?

 

[RayRay19]

good old giffey...him and rj seem like the stabilizers to me...if the game gets out of control...call them in...

Would have liked to see more pushing the ball rather than jogging it up...loving what i see out of evans so far...fearless

Is there a way to even follow the score online?

The only thing uglier than our play so far is the cheerleaders

It's quite tragic because for a few years our cheerleaders were on the up.

 

[dapriest]

Our cheerleader formula seems to be, if you can't have a handful of hot cheerleaders, then have 50 plain ones.

He always looks pretty good when he plays. Never understood why he fell out of favor with Calhoun.

 

[WlfdHusky]

By far Giffey look most ready to play and looks good to this point. Evans start is encouraging. The backcourt looks sloppy - more interested in style over results. Still no 3pt D. Olander attempts 2 3's? I know it is incredibly early, but intensity and discipline appear to be absent. I hope this changes in a big way soon.

i hope they got rid of that dumb dj during games

No disrespect to the kid, who looks like an ox and will no doubt contribute, but he's playing in front of 250 people who are barely awake, against a glorified high school team. What is there to be afraid of?

Tell that to Omar. He's either really nervous or accidentally spilled Crisco all over his hands before tip-off.

I don't think Olander taking 3's is a discipline issue here.

 

[CTGoonie]

halftime down 29-28. Not bad considering being down by 10 several times. Outrebounded 18-17. No way AIC shoots 41% in 2nd half. Uconn will win by 6.

 

[Rumrunner]

These alum cheerleaders are giving the 2012-2013 cheerleaders a run for their money!

 

[UConnJim]

AIC 10 assists, UConn 5 assists. For a "small" team, 5 assists in a half is terrible.

 

[SouthTampaBill]

Sorry bros.

Omar is not prime time. Will transfer next year.

He was owned by the white Vegas guy last year. 4-20 or so in that game?

Adios
