East Carolina Game Thread

I worry about Gabby getting undercut when she's up in the air.

Teams leave the nice weather in the South and come up to get blitzed in the cold.

I'm impressed with East Carolina. They play a far better game this year.

Meg says Molly looks like Kelly Faris while running up and down the floor. High praise indeed.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Gabby, Pheesa, and Lou in double figures.

Stay tuned for Lou on Geno. Interesting to hear after what we heard a couple of days ago...

ESPN3 leaves SNY at the half, so some hi-lites please.

 

[JavaMan]

Excited fans?

 

[huskeynut]

14 assists on 19 buckets

Game tracker has 3 minutes for Bent with an assist and a steal.

And 1 foul that displeased Geno.

Well, I'm at XL Center enjoying the hell out of this. Sloppy second Q at times, but we're up 25 with 20 minutes to go. Napheesa is everywhere!

I was in this same building about wix years ago to witness UConn beat FSU for 89 in a row. Amazing to see this same winning streak still active. Yes, I'll be in the building for USF and what all hope and pray would
be #90.

What a program this is! Badass!!!

I agree. Yes UCONN is blowing some of these teams out, but I notice AAC teams are actually running offense, passing the ball, and trying to get open players good shots. Occasionally it works. UCONN plays terrific defense. But these teams are working had and improving. I think teams like UCF and ECU (maybe even SMU) will be fighting for NCAA bids in the next 3-4 years... add that to UCONN, USF, Tulane and Temple. This year Temple is 10-3, SMU is 10-4, Tulane is 10-4, USF is 11-1, and UCF is 10-4. They may have had "easy" schedules, but it's light years better than last season.

As of today, there would be 10 of the 11 teams in the conference eligible for post season play. Probably only 3 make the NCAA's and I'm not sure 7-7 Memphis would get a NIT bid, but there are lots of reasons to think the American is looking up...

How many teams get to 89 in a row TWICE??

 

[Wbbfan1]

Does Gabby or Napheesa win the Most Improved Player Award for AAC ?

 

[wire chief]

My head has a picture still of that happening to the great leaper David Thompson. Wasn't pretty.

Want a dominating 3rd please.
