I disagree with Becca on that foul on Moore. A player has a right to a certain freedom of movement, even if the defender decides to stick her face in.

Air ball by Hartley on an uncontested 3. We are losing the second half 25-24, so far

She, also, put her open hand on Stewie which was the first foul and then fouled her with the body, too.

This game is a good indication of how much KML is missed. Defenses can't pack the D when you have someone who can shoot from outside like KML.

UCONN 70 - 49 FINAL

 

[NutmegDog]

21 point final diff. That's okay, and it'll be plenty good for UC-Davis. But not at Cameron.

Easily the poorest outing we've had this year. Gonna have a couple of those a year though. 13 assists 16 turnovers. Not good. 6-24 from 3 pt. Not good.

Double double by Dolson, good. 4 players in double figures, good (sorta of - probably should have been more, especially only playing 7 players, but still), 9 blocks, good.

Quality win against an opponent who used frequently-changing defensive strategies to keep UConn off their guard. Best of all...no-one got hurt!

 

[Boxerpups4me]

A pretty good win against a unranked quality opponent. Makes me feel a little better about a couple of Tennessee's lackluster unranked opponent wins. Still very impressed by UCONN's defense, but they did look a little more mortal today. Looking forward to the Duke-Uconn game..should be a good one..

Team played bored and uninterested like they were still on Thanksgiving break.

OSU played tough defense and never gave up. UConn's defense kept the margin of victory comfortable, but it was an ugly win. Even Rebecca said before the game she thought it would be a 30 point margin of victory for UConn. Give credit to OSU

Geno post-game said he thinks they are tired. Certainly not crisp and when 3s would not fall it allowed Ohio to pack the middle. Better wake up for Duke.
