[B][COLOR=rgb(85, 57, 130)][SIZE=5]ADVANTAGE - UCONN[/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)][SIZE=5]BENCH: [/SIZE][/COLOR][/B] UConn can bring 30.4 points and 16 rebounds off the bench. St. John's can bring 31.9 points and 15.9 rebounds off the bench. In the first match-up, St. John's got 16 points off their bench while UConn got 27. Now Aubrey is back and if she is playing and Ice is healthy UConn's bench should dominate this game. If both Aubrey and Ice are unavailable for this game then the bench contribution tightens up considerably. [B][COLOR=rgb(85, 57, 130)][SIZE=5]ADVANTAGE - EVEN[/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)][SIZE=5]INTANGIBLES:[/SIZE][/COLOR][/B] UConn is playing for the post-season now. Both teams will play tough defense, however, I look forward to watching UConn's defense round out into post-season form. They will not look forward to South Carolina instead they will be focused on this game. Too much talent, too much height. UConn's defense will be smothering while their offense will be firing on all cylinders as they put on a show for the home crowd at the Gampel Pavillion, in Storrs. [B][COLOR=rgb(85, 57, 130)][SIZE=5]ADVANTAGE - UCONN[/SIZE][/COLOR] [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)][SIZE=5]COACHING: [/SIZE][/COLOR][/B] Geno and his staff know what they have to do to prepare for Sunday's battle with the Gamecocks and to get this team ready for a deep run toward a championship in March.
