GAME THREAD:Oklahoma

[huskeynut]

I think Geno does his team a bit of a disservice when he doesn't sprinkle in some underclassmen if we're up 15 plus points. Put in some AEH, or some IRWIN. It's really the only way they get better.

Geno will play them when he trusts them.

 

[Centerstream]

I did not know that Pierre-Louis had two fouls in the first half. Oops.

 

[huskeynut]

Pierre-Louis picks up her 3rd foul

 

[Blue Huskie]

OU is playing good game. As good as I've seen them this season.

 

[JustinesGuy]

I think he wants to see a lot more consistency among the 6 that have been playing so far. I think BatCam would be off the bench next if he needed to sub someone new in.

I'm sure theres a great reason for it, he's a lot smarter than me. I kinda know our 6 starters are great. I'd like to see a few others get meaningful minutes. I know if MW was well she'd be mixed in.

 

[TitleTown]

Why Pheesa?

They have the ability to earn minutes. Either they do or they don't.

 

[HuskyNan]

Holy cow

 

[JustinesGuy]

No doubt. You don't think he trusts Irwin?
I think AEH is going to be good.

 

[BigBird]

True. But shouldn’t he trust them quicker?

 

[TitleTown]

UConn hasn't been able to get the ball inside all night. Not a good sign.

 

[GoUconn7961]

The rails are coming off for a bit here..lol.
They need to slow down..

 

[TitleTown]

Coach Auriemma needs to take a TO and calm everything down!

 

[huskeynut]

Geno's team and Geno's standards.

 

[HuskyNan]

Geno has said in the past he won't players in games until he knows what he can expect from them

 

[JustinesGuy]

Totally agree. I'd imagine Irwin plays pretty hard. I'm surprised she doesn't get more run.

 

[huskeynut]

Not a good start to the 3rd quarter.

 

[JordyG]

Okay everyone take a breath and let's do the 3rd quarter push.

 

[HuskyNan]

This is one weird game. Maybe the players are too keyed up

 

[Tenspro2002]

Ugly last 10 minutes, reminiscent of the Mississippi State game. Fortunately, Oklahoma isn't as good.

 

[huskeynut]

OU's aggression is causing them serious foul trouble.

 

[BigBird]

Geno has said in the past he won't players in games until he knows what he can expect from them

Sorry, Nan. My weird sense of humor...

 

[HuskyNan]

Need a TO here

 

[TitleTown]

Don't take a TO Geno, God forbid!

 

[ASweet3781]

Being totally out toughed in all areas. Very disappointing.

 

[HoopsFan21]

51-44 4:38 3rd TO Uconn

 

[JordyG]

Geno forced to call a TO. Manning has played Lou tough, Crystal got banged and hasn't hit a shot since, Collier having a tough game, and Kia (!) has been abused off the dribble. OK has earned this.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Something's off about this team this year. The sum is nowhere near as good as the parts.

 

[huskeynut]

This is not good.

 

[TitleTown]

They are beating you off the dribble, think it might be time to go zone and force them to make some 3 pt jump shots yet? Come on Coach Auriemma, you're better than this!
