Any idea of Nridges will play? Not sure what type if injury it is.

Without him, I think we win. Pressure will get to the MSU youngins

This would be UConn’s biggest games since the Kansas game in the tourney a few yrs ago. If we could get this one........

Tom Izzo did not want us to win, big game tomorrow!

Gilbert breaks out and our guards out rebounded Oregon in our small ball set.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, definitely a good one.

I bet you are absolutely right -- no matter what the point spread was, he definitively preferred facing Oregon! He got a bad taste of UConn in he mouth.

Yeah but to be fair, Oregon only hit 5 behind the arc and most of them were in the first half. I was actually impressed with the defense.
Yeah second half they went away from that. First half they were getting the looks they wanted

Huge win for many reasons. The fact we are playing MSU goes a long way in helping our SOS. Right now, MSU is a top 10 team as well as Villanova and Wichita St who we play 2X.
And Zona, all though they may drop out if they lose to SMU.

I forgot about Arizona, but this is huge. And who knows? If we were to beat MSU, chances are we would get UNC.

MSU's currently ranked 4th in AP, 5th in coaches' poll.

Add Arizona and Cincy twice (ranked 11/12) and it boosts the ol' SOS.

Very good chance at this point we end up with the top non conference sos or top 3 at least.

Msu is legit. We rose to the level of competition today. Let's hope that continues against Msu . I'm sure Ollie will let them know just how big this win would be for our season.

What time tomorrow? ESPN or the U?

Great win the Captain is still flowing
9:30p at least according to the bracket they showed at the end of the game, no channel yet though.

The perimeter defense was impressive. They were only getting good penetration when Larrier got stuck on switches versus Pritchard.

Watching them now. I like our chances.

Still doomed though.
