Game Thread UCONN/ND

[MilfordHusky]

Tied at 50, I think Geno may shorten the bench.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Tied at 50. 15:04 left.

 

[Icebear]

Doty split the trap beautifully. Great board by KML.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Can we please shoot 50% against these guys!

 

[bruinbball]

McBride's midrange is sweet!

 

[UConnChapette]

Muffie wants a time out.

 

[Icebear]

Game flowing really well now.

 

[RadyLady]

Caroline makes such a difference when she is on the floor.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

Say what you want about Criqui, but when he says "Basketball at its best!" he's right! Loved that sequence.

 

[semper]

And I thought Stanford would be our tough game...wow, how wrong some of us were!

 

[UConnChapette]

For those not watching, score is UConn 56, the green guys 52.

Jetlag kicking in....for Notre Dame

Has Caroline Doty been to India lately? I mean as she was going down the court she had 6 arms, three torsos, three heads, and six legs. I am wondering if one of those Indian Dieties is currently possessing her. The only other option would be that two Notre Dame players were on top of her. But there was no whistle... so that cannot be.

Most games with ND are tough battles. These teams know each other so well, that's what makes it such a challenge for either team to have a blow out win.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

ND will be in our bracket for the tourney--rats. Hate it.

Th familiarity between these two teams and their players make this a great matchup. Plus, ND has some really good guards, and that will make any game tough.

 

[Replicant]

nope

Yup. It's on a par with Tara projecting that Stanford doesn't play physical.

 

[arch]

Diggins hit 3, timeout, comebsck and ND has the ball????????

 

[cardfan]

rebounding key, which led to nice transition hoops. ND will tire, Uconn better 'teams", more weapons.

 

[Icebear]

Mabrey shooting .30 on the season can't miss today.

 

[UConnChapette]

Mabrey is a pretty scary good shooter. I hate to say it.

 

[Icebear]

Tough call on KML, very close.

 

[cardfan]

Yup. It's on a par with Tara projecting that Stanford doesn't play physical.

Tara never said Stanford was a not a physical team.

Let's hope!

 

[Icebear]

KML goes down on a rolled ankle.

 

[UConnChapette]

Oh boy. Kaleena rolled her ankle pretty good. Tying up the shoe, and looks like she will stay out on the court? What a warrier!

 

[01Neaggrad02]

What is wrong with these announcers. They watched the same review of what happened. KML had her left foot hit by a notre dame player. you can see the nd player step on KML. I do not believe it was intentional but it was contact. How stupid are they?

 

[Replicant]

Muffie wants a time out.

She knows us so well that she feels our runs coming and calls the most timely TOs.

 

[UConnCat]

Tara never said Stanford was a not a physical team.

Actually she did, last year. Listen to post-game after the Baylor game at the FF last year.

 

[UConnChapette]

Stewie! Nice pass from Faris to BS with good patience. Now she forces McBride into a travel. She seems to be settling down.
