Message: [QUOTE="hookshot, post: 5179651, member: 4756"] Assuming Azzi continues to make progress in getting her game back, and Aubrey progresses to make the 9 player rotation, Uconn is a bit better than either Texas or Southern Cal, questionable against ND, a stretch versus South Carolina and likely a bridge too far against UCLA. The main reason to question them against ND and SC is those teams seem to play their best in the biggest games and Uconn, not so much. The problem versus UCLA is obviously the post mis-match. The most talented line-ups that Uconn can put forth would involve only limited time from Ice and Jana, but wcould put Strong at risk of being fouled out. So Uconn would likely have to use a committee of Jana, Ice, Griffen, and Chelli, to harass and take fouls but that may not be enough anyway. I'd favor putting your best scoring lineup up out there, including Strong taking a lot to the rim and getting fouled herself. Anyway, in less they demonstrate the ability to shoot well against, high pace, high pressure opponents, we may not get see UCLA [/QUOTE]
