One of the best fight-back games I’ve seen in awhile. Wowzers.

Amazing, whatever issued they may have I won't question their heart or toughness after this.

We are now at the 41-second mark, but on the previous possessions they had the clock reset to 30 seconds on 3 different occasions and chose not to run down the clock on either of those possessions. Seemed kind of strange to me

UConn up 5 with 41 seconds left. A basket on this possession and the Opera Singer may start singing. She's doing facial exercises now:)

That's gotta be at least 10 missed shots in a row for the Irish. Fell apart down the stretch.

Complete letdown by there coach McGraw. Stevens had 4 fouls for a reason and ND stopped attacking the basket and played right into UCONNs hands just jacking up shots.

I can see the narrative now will be that UConn saw Lou injured and won the game for their fallen teammate.

ND Fouls before the inbound play. I would have fouled Megan Walker and put her on the line, not Stevens.

Well, UConn certainly has shown that grit and determination they lacked through much of this year. Lou leaves and this team comes alive. Who'd a' thunk it?

not to mention w/ Gabby riding pine

Time to win the game at the free throw line

It was Collier.

And you shouldn't be able to foul off the ball before the inbounds and choose your shooter. Should be an intentional.

Anyone that thinks ND isn't the # 3 team in the country or maybe #2 should have their heads examined. This team comes to do work. And no Gabby.

edited--commentator just said 5 in a row, seems like a lot more than that
The defense definitely picked up from UConn though.

Composure is normally part of their game. Personally I think they were running out of gas more than anything.
So Muffet was a genius in the first half and now she's a loser - LOL

If UConn can't hold a seven point lead for 41 seconds they don't deserve to win

Meg tips a lot of balls on rebounds. A couple every game.

I have been reading the threads all game long. I can't believe the folks that were saying a game we can't win in the 3rd quarter??? early in the 4th?

Geez it's a 40 min game and Uconn is a team capable of stopping other teams from scoring and scoring in spurts...
