Damn. Let the 2nd guessing begin

Crap

lol

Man got a good look at the buzzer too

UConn vs. ND in semifinal means potential for refs to impact the game with less scrutiny. Anyone that doesn't think this game was impacted by how it was called is clueless. We don't play bad against ND because they play magical defense. We play bad because ND is allowed to hack and it prevents our superior players from utilizing their skill and athletic advantages. And then they get rattled. You can say that is their fault but pretty much anyone would get rattled when being hacked constantly. They ALWAYS become afraid to drive when the game is called like this.

Game going into OT. What can you say. ND has played tougher. Huskies kind of choked. Couldn't buy a perimeter basket most of the night. Hopefully they can pull it out.

 

[mdakota]

I'm so nervous i could spit.....

 

[mdakota]

Lou just told Mabrey that she flopped lmao Truth...

 

[augustaTC]

Well, at least I got the satisfaction of seeing Kia lay out Mabrey.

 

[the Q]

Refs didn’t help, but they played timid and soft most of the game.

 

[Vowelguy]

crap crap crap

 

[Paesano]

ND didn't play tougher. They hacked and it wasn't called. HATE the refs.

 

[the Q]

That’s just an epic choke. Plain and simple.

They did it again.

I don’t disagree but down the stretch they got killed on the boards.

 

[mdakota]

they made too many mistakes again... damn... oh well still love them... just sad for gabby and kia

Jesus. They play timid BECAUSE OF HOW THE GAME IS CALLED!!! ND is the darling.

They were timid from the start.

But you’re right. You called it from the beginning that this would happen.

 

[4UConn]

Almost a ground hog day repeat of last year's semi-final. ND was just a bit tougher.

The word "choke" is harsh, but I'm pretty sure it's deserved. Reminds me of the game UConn lost in the semis to Notre Dame in Denver years ago. We all stood around asking ourselves why UConn was losing, and they lost.

 

[01Neaggrad02]

The fouls calls drove me crazy! 23 shots for ND to 6 for UCONN...

They should’ve won this game by no less than 15.

Jesus.

And they turned it over with regularity. Let nd pound them on the boards late.

Down the stretch no one wanted the ball.

 

[tomcat]

And I don't think the refs were an issue on more than maybe two or three plays. On at least a couple, the UConn player fouled the ND player and it was not called, either. Did IK love the refs' work? Heck no. Did they cost UConn the game? Heck, no.

 

[Zanzman]

Stop blaming the refs did u see gabby hit arike’s hand for the blOk no call uconn blew it bottom left be no one else to blame but themselves

 

[Paesano]

That’s just an epic choke. Plain and simple.

They did it again.

Please. Anyone would "choke" under these conditions. Wake up folks. There is a reason why we lose to them in the semis. There is a reason why we lose to them in OT. It isn't an amazing coincidence.

 

[UCDaveD]

One of the mentally softer UConn teams in recent memory. Can’t say I’m surprised. Choke City 2.0

 

[Boxerpups4me]

What a game..that almost full court throw tho and near make with only a little more than a second

 

[Rewster]

Notre Dame drove the ball and that is the reason you get more foul calls.
UConn passed around the perimeter and didn't get the ball to the cutters.
UConn was content with outside shots. Not enough of them fell.
