Message: [QUOTE="PAHuskeyFan, post: 3044482, member: 7880"] Completely agree with you [USER=26]@EricLA[/USER] . Some will say "it's just a different way to play"... but from what I saw, the direction to the UCF players had to be something along the line of "play hard and aggressive, foul if you have to, the ref's won't call them all, and if they do, maybe UCONN will miss foul shots." The "theory" among some in WBB is that our Team plays "pretty ball" and can't handle the physical play. But that's just NOT so. Pheesa and Meg were consistently fouled on close in shots, and were able to muscle them in. Lou was fouled on nearly every shot she took which were almost all from mid to long range... harder to "power it in"... so instead, she calmly stepped to the line and sunk every free throw...the end result was the same. Physical Basketball is one way to play, but there has to be limits, AND the refs can't swallow their whistles! [/QUOTE]
