Baylor still isn't over losing two years ago

[SVCBeercats]

Reminds me of the Oakland raider fans perpetually whining about Franco Harris' Immaculate Reception just shy of 50 years ago. As winners you can either just smile and enjoy their frustration and emotional pain or listen, poke them with a barb, listen, poke them with another barb repeat ad infinitum while enjoying several good laughs as they work themselves into a lather. As a UCONN player I would just chuckle and do one of the above and not try to prove this or that. You won't be able to it. It is like religion. They just believe. Its over. They lost! Enjoy it with a big grin.

UConn women and Baylor set to renew rivalry: 'It seems like every time we do play them there's a lot at stake'

The last time UConn women's basketball team and Baylor met in the NCAA Tournament, the game was decided on a controversial no-call.

UConn women, Baylor discuss controversial 2021 Elite Eight thriller ahead of rematch in NCAA Tournament second round

I absolutely don't blame them for holding that grudge. Horrible way to end an extremely hard fought game.

They want an iffy call at best, but ignore the calls that weren't called on them as if it didn't happen. They were holding and grabbing Paige all night with few calls. I guess you can call it what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Azzi said: I thought that’s how they were calling the game the whole day, that was the right call to make. I think that they were letting so much go.

I'd say that's about right. On some nights, it would be a terrible call, but this wasn't one of those nights. Wise young woman.

Hard to argue the goose/gander logic. But in their case I would default to the pot/kettle idiom.

If the roles were reversed, we'd be just as torn up over that game as Baylor is.

Let me say this. They arent coming close to beating UConn tonite and next season no team may be able to keep up with UConn. Next season could be off the charts. Alot of fans still doubt UConn. Alot of fans dont see what I see. Ive written alot of posts about this team over the 20+years. I believe this season as long as UConn is healthy and up to speed they will win it all. We have the guards to stop SCs guards, we have the defense and we have height to help offset SCs height. The key to beating SC is to contain their guards and our guards have to rebound with our bigs. We have better guards who can create and shoot.

Actually, many of us were torn up with the way Baylor (yes, Carrington) was mauling Paige throughout the game without any whistles blown. So yes, we would have been particularly torn up if the refs had decided to call a foul on that shot.

@psconn you are not in the proper tournament frame of mind!

Now they need to deal with tonight.

 

[MSGRET]

Wonder what they will be angry about after tonight's drubbing?

Suck it up Baylor. When I want to curse out a Red Sox's fan I only say 2 words: "Bucky Dent".

Does any Red Sox fan even care about Bucky Dent any more? That was a long time and 4 WS victories ago. Do you throw in Aaron Boone and Billy Buck as well? Back to the subject. Good game by the WBB team last night especially after that first quarter performance by Baylor. Nice to see the MBB team in the stands as well. Must be a great time to be on campus.
