I liked DT's comment during the half time thing about the first Tenn-UConn game where she said she was 13 at the time and sitting there watching the game and thought "where is this place? it's like the Disney World of basketball. I need to be there."

Great Team Defense by the team today. About the only negative in the game is the number of offensive rebounds USF has. They have 19 with 5 minutes left in the game.

I must say, games against South Florida are typically a little bit frustrating. It was especially bad in 2012 at this time of year. And today, this has been an absolute slaughter. I am incredibly happy with how this game transpired
 
I have to say, a big positive today is the defense, especially of the majority-bench lineup in both halves. There was very little drop-off in defense today from the starters to the bench compared to some other games in the past two weeks, so I really liked that.
 
Very pleased with Chong and Ekmark today. Chong looked confident and engaged today. Looking to shoot and being active. And Ekmark was aggressive offensively. She goth he put back rebound which she's always looking to do but she was also looking for her shot. Shots kept spinning out and you want so badly for one to go down so she can relax but no luck today. Keep up the effort Chong and Ekmark. We are all pulling for you.

Sheesh. Next you'll be asking me to describe the basketball.

Well, its, like, um, round, isn't it?
 
Moriah Jefferson: seven assists against one turnover. Her ATO ratio and three-point shooting percentage are going through the roof.

Get this kid on the WBCA AA team! I can't name 10 players in WCBB I'd rather have on my squad.

Sue Bird I love you -- but

gotta work on those "ummmmmm" . . .

and "you know" . . .
 
Players Need to Know. Where is Tucks name? Granted the AAC is not elite however this was a good team and this UConn team is off the charts good. It was said they haven't peeked yet. Well I can only imagine what theyre going to do in March and April. Right now this team is unbeatable. I don't know what SC plans to do but I cant see them within 25 pts as of right now.
 
I won't say "for all the talk about attendance" because I'm not criticizing anyone. Alternatively, I'll just say that, even though there was a concern expressed about attendance, more than 9,000 people showed up for a poor opponent despite the mediocre weather and the drive to Storrs from all over the state. Not shabby.

I had to look up a few of the players on this list .. Tuck is at 14.8 ppg and 58.6% fgp (from uconnhuskies.com) and A'ja Wilson is at 13.2 and 50%. Things that make you go hmmm.

In order to get 19 offensive rebounds you have to a lousy shooting percentage, so it is not something I would brag about if I was the coach.

I hate seeing these bare crowds. I guess it is hard to complain too much since I don't go to games anymore, but really students? Where are you?

Has being televised every game really hurt the attendance that bad?

They've been televising just about every game since the late 90s, haven't they? The good, bad and ugly ones...

Sue is hyperkinetic, so she races through everything, including speech. Pretty common in sports, especially women's sports.

Many more seats with fannies in the second half for sure. CT roads were bad with many accidents in the AM. Not sure why such a weak student section for this one though.
