I think the other major factor was sitting Sanogo for so long - yes he had 4 fouls but if you wait too long to put him back in it won't matter anyways, and I think 2mins left was too long he should have been brought in at the 4min mark.
The team got some bad breaks at the end, and yes Bouk wasn't 100% so this loss feels crummy to all of us, especially when it looked like a BET crown was doable. I think Bouk has great potential and wish money wasn't a thing (HA!) so he'd come back and get more experience before moving on - I don't know how much we'll be talking about him in 10 years like we do Kemba, but I wish him the best. At the least I hope he's remembered as part of a team that tried their best to bring UCONN back to where it should be. I think we have some great years ahead as fans!
