Good to tout the defense because it is the area that distinguishes UConn from everyone else in the field. In a game in which the Huskies' best shooters could not find the ocean, the d was the way that gave UConn the time to regain its footing.
This game illustrated the way that the Huskies could lose (gasp!); go ice cold and count on holding off the opponent. BUT should the opponent have more than 1 player, trouble could brew.
Now, we have the Irish again, a team we already beat by the largest MOV in the history of the rivalry. ND also has a player who can put up numbers, the dreaded HH. (She is also extremely annoying with all the chest pounding.) Regardless, we should prevail.
After the Irish, it's probably SC and UCLA. This is where the title will be decided, and we'll need some offense to go with our d.
