Game Thread MD-UCONN

[01Neaggrad02]

We need to give Maryland credit... they are a legit top 10 team. Also the Refs are letting them play. However, that sometimes works against us. Maryland is physical... but then again so are we.

So much for the comments that UCONN would blow MD out and that MD doesn't play defense.

We may get to the blowout eventually, but MD has certainly D'd us up well a few times.

Stef with a beast of a BLOCK!

Yep turnovers 16-8 i/f/o Uconn

Why is Dolson jumping at the 3 point line with 1 second on the shot clock? Maryland has been better than I expected, if they had there full team they would be right under the big 3 of us, Baylor Duke.

Faris going wild!!!

Up 13, almost 15 at the half that is pretty decent start to a blow out. Match it in the second half and it is a blowout.

MD has 18 turnovers, the lead should be 20

Only 7 assts. on 14 baskets

Alyssa who?. Would it kill O'Brien or Doris to note that Kelly has taken Thomas out of this game and is completely outplaying her?. And it does not take a brilliant analyst to know
that this was exactly what would happen.

Has Tuck done anything?

Yes, but we are only shooting 42%.

For mojo purposes, we might need a separate 2nd-half game thread for this game.

Kelly and Stewie have played some good D on Thomas and DeHann (sp?).

Kelly Faris is a special player... Gives you everything she has every night.

 

[Icebear]

Second half thread up at VAMike's suggestion. Mend the MOJO.

Wow a lot of cocky comments. How about we be respectful of both teams and players on both teams. Alyssa Thomas is a good player.... why do you want to trash a student athlete here?

She hasn't played that I remember.

Who's trashing her? The box score tells the story.

Nothing cocky in the first half she has been shut down. They just celebrated the job Kelly has done on her.

So if someone plays great D on one of our players, or one of our players has an off night you would be okay with some other teams fan talking smack about our players? I certainly wouldn't.

Hartley is looking "rusty".

I think CD out-played her in the first half.
