FIVE SEED

[FatHank]

Yeah, I've never had an issue streaming games but it's been a nightmare this year. I've ended up just watching ESPNU games on my tablet and not even trying on my TV

I don't get either channel so watching most of our season has been on feed2all.org and reddit streams for me. I need to thank the Boneyard for giving me the know how for these feeds this year. I hope next year is better channel reception for me, and any remaining post-regular season games we have.

Houston can pretty much moonwalk to the finals. 6 seed for us wudda been way better. Memphis made out

6 seed has to go thru Smu or Houston in quarters which we avoided....

 

[rcarj]

Is it possible that we are the favorite to win the AAC tourney? No one is hotter. I don't care what Wichita State did today.

You should.

Yeah but they get an easier second round game. But yer right - deff don’t want to see Houston and cincy is struggling

 

[CTBasketball]

I want to burst Wichita St and Cincinnati's bubble. Give me blood!

 

[ToolzieFan]

Let’s do this.

 

[Rocktheworld]

How are we feeling??

Like this brick wall got nothin on me

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

First game is at 1 on Thursday so even though our start time is listed at 3, looks like we won’t actually play until around 3:30

There may be a consistency advantage to having the brackets offer UConn a similar start time for every day that they play.

That said, ONE GAME AT A TIME.

 

[Edward Sargent]

He played great after missing all those first half layups.

He had a double double in the second half

You love to see it. Need to get back @ Wichita for that 2OT loss then ruin Cinci’s season.

On another note that Wichita game got me thinking... 3 OT losses in conference play, if we flipped all 3 of those we’d be on the bye right now, would have beat Tulsa, Wichita, and Temple. So we’d be in the 3 way tie with Cinci and Houston

 

[XLCenterFan]

You should.

Take that comment to some Shocker fan board you hater.

He had a double double in the second half

One year ago who would truly believe that Whaley would be averaging a double double to close out the season

If we won all 4 conference OT games we'd have won a share of the league title, but gotten the 3rd seed in a pretty gnarly tiebreaker loss (three way even head to head, even record against common opponents down to the 8th seed).

Terrible because I can't watch now

Great, because I’ll be there reppin.
9:30 game was doubtful

 

[HuskyHawk]

This Seems right. I consider Wichita State almost as dangerous as Houston. And more dangerous than Cinci or Tulsa. Glad to avoid SMU, that’s a bad matchup for us.

I have to attend a funeral Thursday morning so will work from home after that. Can watch on my iPad. Almost always work from home on Friday, but I need to be in Boston for a concert Friday night. Hopefully can see the whole game before we leave.

 

[kobe]

we do have a history of very unhappy endings in March for the boys from Ohio

it would only be right if the last uc-uconn aac game was in the conference tournament and you guys basically knock us out of the ncaas. and thats exactly what is gonna happen.

I like the way you think

I don't understand why you're so pessimistic; it's not like Cincinnati has a history of losing in their 2nd tournament game.

 

[UconnAlum04]

Don't you try to reverse jinx us.
We are DOOMED!

 

[NJHusky]

Love your spirit, but if we play like today, we don't win 2 games.

Good teams win when they play poorly...bad teams don’t. This was a classic trap game and we won

 

[mauconnfan]

Greg Marshall is a great tournament coach, that game really scares me. Playing Tulane again won't be easy, would have preferred the 6 seed honestly.

While I prefer ECU than Tulane I like the 5 seed because I prefer Cincy than Houston. Need the kids to be all in from the whistle on Thursday but Hunter and his team will not be easy once again. One game at a time!

 

[joober jones]

Whaley has emerged as this year’s surprise spark in a way that was almost too good to be true. Up until today he was shooting a high high percent from the paint. Today was a hiccup. He’ll be back on Thursday.

He was really back on by the 2nd half. He had an abysmal first half, but scored 10 pts on 4/4 FG, 2/3FT and had 3 boards and 4 blocks in the 2nd half. 7 rebounds came in the first half, but a lot of them were offense rebounds that resulted in missed buckets.

Even his bad days are statistically good days. He is a game changer that pork chop!

We are 3-7 on the road. I'll take any road win.
