Thank you everyone please keep the scores and comments coming... at Lincoln Center tonight

Wonderful! I'll be there for the Nutcracker in 4 weeks.

There's a reallynice "in control" element to Jefferson's drives these days.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Ok, guys. The second half is 8-8. Time to play UConn basketball.

ESPN3 feed was pretty good against Oregon, now its horrible. How I miss the direct feeds from CPTV or SNY.

Semi O.T.: You know how fortunate we are? Look at WatchESPN's schedule: Bunch of Men's BB games. One WCBB game -- UConn. What a great thing.

UConn has been pretty sloppy at the start of both halves on most games this season and that will
come back in bite them in the butt against a good/hot team down the road.

Yup. Previous Husky teams knew the value of putting the game out of reach at the start of halves. Geno's getting soft on these kids lol.

 

[MilfordHusky]

60-21. UConn's low scorer (BB) has 4. BU's high scorer has 6.

 

[MilfordHusky]

I'm glad we have a shot-blocker coming off the bench, but I didn't realize it was Saniya!

 

[HoopsFan21]

Stewart with a 3. 67-21 11:50.

 

[EasyEd]

Stewart has looked really good passing in this game.

 

[MilfordHusky]

67-21. Stef and Stewie have 20 and 17, respectively.

Unless more women's basketball teams get serious about building their programs, the regular season is, in essence, a useless exercise

Hmm, sounds like a response to Linn Dunn's tweet.

First back to back 20-point games from #UConn's Stef Dolson since she played at Minisink Valley HS

 

[MilfordHusky]

[Suebird10fan]

if you ignore first 4 minutes of each half, we're outscoring BU 59 to 8.

You're correct for the vast majority of games that UCONN plays. Tonight's game could have been won if we had played 4 on 5. But where are all of these additional players going to come from ? Or do you think coaching is the major factor ?
With a whole conference of games like this, except Louisville, moving to another conference should be a priority.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Stokes w/10 pts now. Time out.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Stokes with 8 points. 79-24 7:50

BU's leading scorers have 6 each.

John Altavilla ‏@jaltavilla 4m
Boston University has scored just 14 points in 25 minutes #UConnwomen

 

[MilfordHusky]

Stef has 23 and 9. All 3 bigs in double figures.

I wish Geno would consider having the walk ons play earlier in games like this. I know Chong needs minutes with the starters, but having a walk on play a minute or two earlier wouldn't hurt the starters any and give them more rest.
