Message: [QUOTE="cferraro04, post: 3825302, member: 267"] The above analysis is based on a man to man defense...and assumed the match-ups I selected are actually UConn staff approved match-ups. There is, of course, a very good chance that UConn will play a zone defense for all or a good part of the game. There is also that UConn will play a hybrid of both zone and man to man. Either way...the match-ups above can provide a comparison in which if we just compare the statistics in each match-up post game...it can show where similar players from either team out played their counterpart. It is just a tool in which could bring some understanding (post game) as to where each team needed to step up in order to change the outcome of the game. I always like a man to man match-up game...but, Arkansas' guard oriented offense and Paige Buecker's current injury (should she play)...may dictate that UConn play more zone than man to man. Either way, I still see a 9-12 point victory for UConn. [/QUOTE]
