Let's get ready to rumble! Go Huskies!

 

[UConnChapette]

Where is everyone tonight?

 

[UConnChapette]

UConn down early 5-4. Cold shooting so far.

 

[HoopsFan21]

5-4 BU 16:00

Ugly game so far for us...Stewart being too timid on offense. There is no way these girls should be blocking her shot.

missing some pretty routine shots inside - haven't tried much outside yet. You get the sense that UConn isn't quite out of second or third gear yet..

Are they even in first yet? Seems more neutral to me...

This team is different than some of the past teams that would relish the first five minutes of the game where they would pretty much step on the opposition's throat and the game would be over by the first media time out.

 

[UConnChapette]

Wow, really stinking up the joint in the scoring column. Shots are really ugly.

The kid Latham from Glastonbury on BU shows no fear, taking it in against the bigs.

kiah in for TBS, BB gets a hoop, and one.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Nice play by Banks. Boy she's really getting better game by game. Good to see after surgery.

 

[UConnChapette]

Mo - is a Globe Trotter uni in her future?

 

[pinotbear]

Saniya in..

 

[UConnChapette]

Score update for those who aren't seeing the game. 12-7 after a Stef steal and break away layup!

 

[HoopsFan21]

12-7 UConn 11:57

 

[HoopsFan21]

Stewart with a 3. 15-7 11:10.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Chong with a long 3. 20-7 9:30. 16-2 run by UConn.

 

[UConnChapette]

KaChong!

 

[choochoo]

finally one of our post players used the backboard. CD has got to be pissed.

You take a scrappy little team and give them the idea they can run with the Big Dogs and you just might have a trap game.

 

[UConnChapette]

UConn opening up the lead now, 22-10

 

[Olde Coach]

12-7 UConn 11:57

From reading this thread, it looks lik UConn has missed 8 or more layups? Are they all unfocused?

 

[UConnChapette]

Sweet sequence there! Mo's got some ups!

I was thinking along those lines, except if you get a team that gets hot and just chucks it up from 3-land UConn can be beat. These long stretches where they go cold against a terrible team could be dangerous against a team with a pulse.
