Game thread!

Stanford putting UConn on the line helps a lot given that Stanford isn't spending much time there.

 

[huskyharry]

Really cold shooting both ways. UConn is playing tougher D

 

[OneTrickPony]

Beautiful pass by Kelly down low...

 

[MilfordHusky]

Listening on Stanford radio, they are consistently calling Caroline "Dotty". In fact, a couple of minutes ago they said "Doty" and then corrected themselves. So Dotty it is.

Dot Com.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Brianna picks Orrange...!

 

[alexrgct]

Um...how was that not a foul on Chiney?

 

[OneTrickPony]

Chiney and one...she's gotta put The trees on her back now...

 

[Icebear]

Chiney should have been called for the foul over the top and pulled KML to the ground by her wrist.

 

[alexrgct]

Whew. Stanford not making us pay for two missed treys and a bad layup attempt by Banks.

 

[Icebear]

29-12 1:00 to go. Stanford completely lost.

 

[alexrgct]

Oh, so sick by KML.

 

[Icebear]

KML moves the lead back to 19

 

[Icebear]

Tinkle fouled Stanford to inbounds.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Kaleena has expanded her repertoire!

 

[alexrgct]

That was a bailout foul on Chiney.

 

[Icebear]

Chiney fouled by Tuck, maybe.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Morgan playing nice D but getting the freshman treatment from the zebras...

 

[Icebear]

UConn up 18 with 6.4 seconds to the half and so it ends at the half.

 

[huskyharry]

CO getting the benefit of home calls lately

 

[OneTrickPony]

31 - 13 UCONN at the half...Tara says Chiney needs to trust her teammates...

 

[huskyharry]

UConn's pressure D has been very effective

 

[Icebear]

Disagree with Tara Chiney's teammates need to trust themselves. Ciney is in the post and they pass it in instead of seeking other options, too.

 

[Vowelguy]

Reminds me of the game in San Antonio 3 years ago.

Me too a bit. But thankfully we're scoring this time.

 

[huskyharry]

Great first half...keep it up!

 

[alexrgct]

The scary thing is UConn can play a lot better on offense. Obviously, Stanford can play much, much better too, but UConn has a lot of things to talk about in the locker room in order to maintain focus.

The real difference thus far has been poise and energy more than anything. UConn has brought it.

 

[Plumber Luigi]

Now who's NOT expecting a different standard to be used for fouls in the second half?

 

[Vowelguy]

What is it with low scoring UConn/Stamford games.

Two good teams who play similarly so they know how to disrupt the other's offense.

 

[Icebear]

How many rebounds did Stef end the half with 11, 12, ...

 

[MilfordHusky]

1 assist for the Cardinal on 5 hoops. Wow!

Don't let Stanford get any momentum. Keep the crowd out of the game.

 

[Icebear]

Now who's NOT expecting a different standard to be used for fouls in the second half?

If it is like the game two years ago Stef will be called for 2 fouls in the first 2 minutes of the second half.
