Game Thread: UCONN/Baylor

[VAMike23]

Didn't get to watch the first half, but I like our chances to make halftime adjustments better than their chances to make adjustments. When you don't have any made FG in the last 15:00+ minutes of the half, it means the opponent is dominating you on your end.

That's not likely to change bc of a halftime talk.

I'm asking for a lot. ....But hopefully when the refs saw the flop by McKenzie they will realize what a bad call that was in their part AND how bad Baylor is flopping

 

[CCinCT]

Whatever gave anyone the idea that Dee Kantner was a good official ????????

 

[Adesmar123]

With all the complaining about referees...did I stumble into the Summitt?

 

[ctchamps]

Bad calls against both teams. The Dolson charge the girl didn't flop she just slipped. Horrible call against KML. Robertson flopped big time.

BB fouled sims but the second foul was phantom.

If Stef or BS pick up foul # 4 early in the second, Kiah will need to play huge. But she is a stong defender and rebounder. I have faith she can manage quite well.

Wish we had Tuck though...

Dee sells herself like Baylor sells the flops. That's why she can appreciate what Baylor is selling.

 

[BearJWS]

How many more shots does Sims force & fake to be fouled this half? Acting...

Maybe someone will pull the refs aside and tell them to knock it off. In a game like this, I guess Geno's poor coaching decision came from NOT teaching his kids to flop.

 

[Aluminny69]

First, I said after the Kentucky game, that the Refs would determine the outcome. Nobody listened to me. Second, trust Geno to make adjustments for the flopping. Third, I don' think it is Dee Kantner making those bad calls. It is mostly the dark haired female Ref. BTW, Robertson is Mulkey's daughter. It doesn't take much to knock her down...

As for KML's 2nd foul,
And the Grammy for Best Supporting Actress in a Basketball Game goes to...

 

[UConnChapette]

Breanna! Gotta make those especially when there is no one defending that reverse!

What?!!?!?! An OFFENSIVE foul called on Baylor? Huh, who knew.

 

[UCONNfan1]

I'd also like to see Geno totally call out the refs after the game and make a pretty big deal about it and say "screw the fine". UCONN is the biggest and best program in the nation. We all knew Kanter was horrible, but this is something special.

Good call against Sims flinging her elbow into MoJet.

 

[reno tony]

They called one on Floppy!!!!!

67 1/2 TO GO​

 

[BearJWS]

Sims elbowed like 4 times on that drive!!!

 

[MilfordHusky]

Kaleena's shot is off.

 

[HGN]

Baylor is not playing scared......41-34 UConn. Stewie with 2 ff.

 

[MilfordHusky]

She pushed off 3x. The fourth, which was nothing, got called.

 

[UConnChapette]

They called one on Floppy!!!!!

Now if they can just call some on Mopsie and Cottontail.

 

[Replicant]

These announcers are revolting

 

[HGN]

One touch foul after the other....Geez these refs are horrible.

 

[BJLfromBK]

Geno needs to tell stewart to just never leave the block. Yes she can shoot, but why do it when you havea clear advantage down low. Lets go on a run and end this early this 2nd half!

 

[Icebear]

Sims elbowed like 4 times on that drive!!!

She was swinging that elbow like a scythe trying to get free.

 

[HGN]

45-36 UConn at the 15:55 mark.
