that scheduled UConn because the Big 3 graduated are now worried that their "win" may not happen now?
Big games left: OSU, Maryland, and South Carolina.that scheduled UConn because the Big 3 graduated are now worried that their "win" may not happen now?

I believe there are 5 of them.I think a few of them are absolutely certain the win ain't happening.
True. I don't think the Huskies will, but KSU is not to be taken for granted.Don't overlook Sunday. Potential trap game.
Yes, but I believe that Butler is a situational player. She may not be used much against certain teams. When this team is running and looking good, she seems to bog down the play. When she entered the game tonight, the team was ahead; 19-12. When she exited, they were losing 32-30. Geno saw this; she did not play in the 2nd half......on the other hand, Uconn may not have beaten Texas without her.It looks like Geno has his 7 go to players for the push to .F. If they win the N.C. they will be the Magnificent Seven. The new cast will be Nurse (Brynner) Williams (Bronson) - KLS (Coburn) - Collier (McQueen) - Chong (Vaughn) - Butler (Dexter) - Dangerfield (Buchholz).
ThisJustin-no disrespect but these games do matter as they build character, confidence and continue the Aura of what UConn is and who THIS group of young woman are. As my mother used to say-it's not the destination, it's the journey and with this young group-I am loving it,,,Don't care about the regular season. Care about the post-season.

And USF perhaps?Big games left: OSU, Maryland, and South Carolina.
Well, in a word, yes. I recall hearing stories before the season started to the effect that, with the top three WNBA draft picks from 2016 now out of the picture, this was "the year" to "get" UConn, since if you look at our upcoming recruiting classes, as one person put it in the media, if you don't beat them this year, it may be a while before you do.that scheduled UConn because the Big 3 graduated are now worried that their "win" may not happen now?
Agree, MD is our biggest challenge left. Gave us a heart stopper last year with our big 3.I think MD is the most difficult obstacle left. They play unorthodox and they have three studs who are really quick. OSU is way to one dimensional. SC has strong posts but they are pretty slow. Wilson is elite but can be frustrated and their guards cant give enough 3 pt protection. Besides, we have them psyched out.
Actually, I am looking at the AAC USF team as an interesting game. They have some really good 3pt shooters.
Should be fun. Still, I think we will be undefeated unless foul trouble knocks us out of a game
Not me, I want that streak in tact for a few more years at least.Don't care about the regular season. Care about the post-season.

As she was in other games, Natalie was brought in to save the situation until the calvary arrives.
In that, she was somewhat less effective than she had been in past games, but still did well enough.
The game did not get out of hand.
Napheesa is integral to the UConn offense, perhaps the essence of it, so her temporary absence required moments of patience until her return.
Nat did fine...at least well enough.
