Game Thread: UCONN/Lville AAC Championship

How does that guy work in Bristol and miss-pronounce Geno's last name that badly

 

[VAMike23]

Lol, listening to half time. I was about to ask how Chris Cotter from ESPN, in Bristol, could not know how to pronounce Quinnipiac. But then he mispronounced Auriemma 3 straight times.

That was painful. Hopefully Kara or the producer clues him in at the break

DAMN! He still didn't get it right after the break! Hello, is there a producer in the house ?? Anyone?

 

[UConnCat]

Huh?
Did I say it was good defense?

Did I say you said that? I agree with your point, which I think is clear from my post.

 

[Vowelguy]

10 turnovers for UConn. Ugh. And as I said earlier, many of them were completely unforced.

I'd say great minds but that would be an insult to you!

If she passes it its a layup for kml

You go at the other team's best player, seeing as she had two fouls..Bria Hartley can do whatever the heck she wants to on the break anyway. So fun to watch in that situation.

Stewie and Bria have been one of the best one-two punches Uconn has ever seen.

I can understand, I mean the guys only won 8 NC's

One of our players said in a post game interview after the last game that L'ville fouls on every play, readily acknowledging that the strategy involves the refs simply having to look the other way or sent them home by the quarter. Put that together with Jeff's incessant whining and it's more than a little annoying. His ambition dishonors the game.

 

[Vowelguy]

He's certainly not the first at ESPN to mispronounce. I heard it a lot last year during the Hockey tournament.

 

[Blue Huskie]

We need Dolson to start playing like the All American she is

I'm curious if you had any observations of things we did correctly that half?

Even he said Kara's name wrong, I was like seriously??

Yep, The age old strategy - "If you can't beat em - beat em up"

He messed up Lawson's name ? How did he pronounce it?

Watch L'ville when Stewie gets the ball and is close to scoring.

So since "she's fun to watch" means she shouldn't have made the correct play?

 

[Icebear]

I learned long ago to accept those moments when Bria doesn't pass (and should) on the break, because it's the price you pay for her attack-dog mentality....and I mean that as a compliment

Worse than that are the passes she makes when she shouldn't and the sloppy ones when her mind is elsewhere.

 

[luckyhusky7]

He said it with a C not a K pronounciation

 

[Blue Huskie]

Dolson just got her 13th rebound. She looks good to me.

 

[luckyhusky7]

Good finally calling the inside fouls

 

[DavidK]

Starting to call their holds, and a Bria Three

 

[JellyBean]

Hartley is playing with some serious swag!

 

[Vowelguy]

12 fouls on Louisville, 5 on UConn

Clearly UConn is getting home cooking from the refs.

[sarcasm]

 

[UConnChapette]

Late to the party, and not even fashionably so. Things looking pretty good at this point.

 

[ASweet3781]

You gotta wonder if the committee will even want to see UConn-Louisville Part 4 at this point.

 

[sawxfan23]

That's how you run the break!

 

[DavidK]

What a pass to Jefferson by Bria

 

[JellyBean]

Wow. That is an interesting stat; no free throws for Louisville. We are playing a clean game.

 

[UConnChapette]

Check out Walz' shirt! Plain white!

Shocked, I tell you. SHOCKED!

 

[Samanthabrown3]

You missed a lot of fun!

I don't know about the committee, but Walz sure wouldn't.
