First game thread of the season: UConn v. Stanford

[Kaizen]

Nice to see Lou has changed to go inside ..

 

[bags27]

That Megan is in in the 1st half of the first game shows Geno thinks she's something special (I know, I know: duh!!!).

 

[BigBird]

So many point blank shots being missed!

 

[HuskyNan]

So many point blank shots being missed!

Players are triple-teamed. Apparently Tara is giving up the mid-range shots

 

[Mdoggie]

You know they are not the “Cards” right?

 

[huskeynut]

Steal by Gabby,fast break, 2 for Lou.

 

[oldude]

Rule #1 for Stanford. Don't ever attempt to pass the ball over Gabby's head

 

[bags27]

Same old story year after year . The Cards get smart kids with HIGH boards whose BB skills are behind the other good teams. They were good in the 90s until everyone else caught up. They play like us in a lousy conf. and usually fla

Well, Lou turned them down; Z transferred from Duke, Molly turned down Princeton and Brown; and word has it Pheesa turned down Harvard and I'm sure others. I don't think you can draw the conclusion at all about boards, grades, etc. The best players go pretty much where they want in this sport.

Not gonna be many point guards better than Crystal Dangerfield this season. She has made huge strides! I think Lou is purposely trying to prove that’s she not just a three point shooter! I like this new Lou. I see why Geno said she is the one that affects the game the most!

1) It's the Cardinal, the color
2) Stanford made the final 4 last year, and 7 of the past 10 years.
3) The PAC has been one of the strongest conferences the last few years.

If you are not ready when Gabby has the ball at the top of the key, you are toast!

 

[HuskyNan]

Jeepers, free throws...

Not complaining, just surprised.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Shooting aside from Dangerfield has not been great. That's the only real complaint though.

 

[Centerstream]

Hey great sideline crew: occasionally mention what's going on on the court.

Exactly. Having 2 analysts means too much talking and not about what is going on out on the court. Plus they have to keep advertising their up coming games/events.

 

[huskeynut]

Crystal with the pull-up for 2. Such a sweet shot.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Collier for 3!!! 43-13 2:25 2nd

 

[oldude]

30 pt lead....Damn!!!

 

[MilfordHusky]

Free throw shooting is poor at 6-11. Everything else looks good.

 

[BigBird]

UConn by 30, yet the Huskies are giving away easy points on offense. Oh, what this team might become!

You are never going to find a broadcast where they talk non-stop about game action when it's 43-13.

will give Geno a "talking" (!!) point in practice.

 

[Mdoggie]

How is Megan looking?

I watch her, and she is everywhere ..

 

[Vowelguy]

How is Megan looking?

Looked tentative, a bit nervous. 1st game jitters.

 

[huskeynut]

Lou with apretty drive for 2. And 1.
