Game thread: UConn vs. OSU

[rvwsleep]

Stokes has easily the best hands for rebounding on the team. TBS with 5 blocks so far.
47-26

 

[Samanthabrown3]

So sloppy. They pass the ball and Ohio State intercepts it. More than once.

 

[rvwsleep]

Another air ball from TBS. This one from about 12 ft on the baseline. Not her day offensively.

Lots of TOs tonight. Way too many.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

But a great day for Stewie for blocking!

She's really struggling offensively.

 

[rvwsleep]

Dolson for 3 !!! OSU packing it in daring us to shoot from outside.

 

[Samanthabrown3]

I'm outta here, folks. We'll talk tomorrow.

[NutmegDog]

down to 14 pt. difference. Not biting nails yet, but...

 

[David 76]

No Flow. Getting outplayed

 

[rvwsleep]

No rhythm at all on offense. And WAY too many loose passes. Chong is not shy jacking up the 3's

 

[rvwsleep]

14 turnovers led by Dolson with 7 !!!! We will have twice our normal amount before the game is over.

 

[NutmegDog]

Stewie with another block. Ties career best. Now, scoring ....

 

[rvwsleep]

UCONN 5 for 20 from 3 pt range.

57-42 with 5 mins left

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.

 

[rvwsleep]

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.

 

[rvwsleep]

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.

 

[meyers7]

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..
