ND still killing UConn on the boards

 

[nwhoopfan]

Doesn't look like the Irish are going to fold. Huskies got within 3 but it's back to 7 now.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Huskies need to turn it around soon.

 

[Tenspro2002]

Even after all that we're still down 7. Both offense and defense are a problem.

The 2001 team was supposed to be the best team ever, and they never put it all together. Hope we're not seeing the same with this group.

UConn's real chance now will come in the 4th if and when Gabby comes in and controls the pace of play. If not, it's looking tougher and tougher.

Agreed!

 

[Mdoggie]

Score please

I'm sorry, but this is just so dissapointing. We got outworked big time in the off season it appears. Not sure how that is possible after the MSU loss.

Pretty bad when you let Lili Thompson crash the offensive glass.

 

[JustinesGuy]

People thought I was crazy when I said they may sit gabby for z and danger. Well to start the half not so crazy

ND will not lose this game, we will have to win it...

 

[JordyG]

I mean, getting beat by Nelson on the pick and roll is not tolerable.

I think the 2001 team had it together. They just lost 2 starters at the end of the season.

Cut the lead to 3 points, miss a couple of shots and ND makes theirs to extend the lead back to 7. Katie-Lou is playing her heart out. She needs some more help, especially from Azura'.

 

[CTBballfan243]

UConn and ND both have both come out playing pretty well in the 2nd half. 2 really evenly matched teams talent wise.

That is simply not true. They had sluggish efforts even before the injuries and lost by 16 to ND when at full strength.

If you UConn is going to make a run and get back in this thing, they need to do so in the next 2 to 3 minutes. They need to make some stops. Notre Dame is getting a lot of easy baskets you can't seems to have to work for everything they're getting. Notre Dame is getting a lot of easy baskets.

Appears that Gabby is being sat for the moment because she isn't bringing her usual energy; hopefully she will find it

 

[Centerstream]

Mabrey is begging for a foul call... just wait, at a crucial time, she will get the call...

 

[nwhoopfan]

Is Gabby going to play in the 2nd half?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

We've got the missed layup title in the can.

 

[TitleTown]

Can't miss wide open layups in a game like this!

 

[HoopsFan21]

Kia for 3!!! 55-51 3:27 3rd

 

[nwhoopfan]

Nurse w/ a big 3, she's been quiet for quite a while.
