Benched Gabby...Lose Lou...Down 12...One of the more satisfying wins in a while?

 

[Orangutan]

Reminds me a bit of the Tennessee game last year in how ND's offense stagnated and the shooters went ice cold.

Final score won't tell the story of this one.

 

[my2cents]

never a doubt

 

[Kaizen]

Megan has 5 rebs..

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS back in for Z

 

[nwhoopfan]

Katie Lou back in?

You're welcome. Glad ND could provide some adversity to overcome

 

[oldude]

Lou back in the game on one leg?

 

[Roger G]

How about Walker with the boards?!

 

[HoopsFan21]

Z back in for KLS

Which story? That UConn outscored ND by 17 in the 4th quarter?

Something that has been brought up by others is UConn's superior conditioning - has proved to be essential this game. Perhaps ND's tired legs contributed to the ice-cold shooting from the arc in the 4th.

This is one reason I rarely post on these treads during the game. I'm an emotional guy (shocker I know), and was dropping all kinds of 4 letter words at the TV during the game. No point in exposing all of you to that! LOL.

Absolute hell of a 4th quarter - probably one of the best quarters I've ever seen UCONN play against a tremendous opponent. All the credit in the world to Muffet and ND for outplaying/outcoaching UCONN and Geno for at least half the game. And KUDOS to our team for the fight and grit in one fantastical 4th quarter...

80-71 final

Walker stepped up. Azura stepped up. Collier stepped up.
The offense is not fluid but they are a gutsy team.

 

[oldude]

26-9 4th qtr.....WOW!!!

 

[Shades]

 

[Rema64]

we WIN!!!
Ye of little faith. I can't believe how quickly some bailed on this team. At the end they showed true grit.

 

[nwhoopfan]

21-2 ND run in the 1st half, 26-9 UConn run to end the game.

 

[VAMike23]

Never in doubt !!!

 

[Blueballer]

HUGE win. Can we stop now with not being able to win close games. play good in the 4th quarter or have a bench? How about coming back from down 12 to a top 5 team?! MUCH of the damage was done with KLS and Gabby on the bench.

 

[Carnac]

UConn showed a lot of heart and toughness today. the cream rose to the top. now we know for sure what kind a team we have.

 

[JordyG]

Grit, heart, determination, toughness, and the unerring will to win. Against by the way a team with almost an equal measure. I think Orangutan was right. ND ran out of gas and UConn turned up the octane.

 

[VAMike23]

Best thing about 4th qtr: Husky "fight"

2nd best thing: Lou came back in !!!!

 

[TitleTown]

Well I deserve a big plate of crow after this one. Really proud of how they played the last 7+ minutes of this game. Looked like an entirely different team with the heart and hustle.
