[BigBird]

Good energy from the Huskies.

 

[bags27]

our defense is really starting to make the difference.

 

[HuskyNan]

UConn defense is awesome.

 

[Zorro]

I've seen three team turnovers by FSU. Were those all shot clock violatins?

 

[bags27]

did Lou just get a rebound off the rim?

 

[bags27]

Lou!

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS for 3!!!! 29-19

 

[HuskyNan]

did Lou just get a rebound off the rim?

Yep, noticed that, too.

Lou for threeeeee!

 

[bags27]

again!!

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS for 3!!!! 32-19

 

[EricSD]

UCONN opening the throttle a bit and putting some distance between the 2 teams after a really strong start to the 2nd quarter - now up 13...

For the record I'd LOVE to have someone ask Geno why the 1st quarter was so close and why we blew them out in the 2nd. Even defensively we were superior in the 2nd quarter.

I get that we missed layups, but why? does he think it was nerves? Too excited/anxious? Just curious as he has a much better pulse on his team than we do watching from our couches...

 

[bags27]

Lou unchained!!

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS takes the base line for 2 34-22

 

[HuskyNan]

Lou looking more comfortable going to the rim.

 

[bags27]

GABBY! Holy Moly.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Gabby with a board and put back 36-24 half

 

[HuskyNan]

Wow, Gabby!

Man, playing USF is like trench warfare. Please put them way off in the opposite corner of the NCAA bracket, selection committee.

 

[Vowelguy]

23-10 in q2

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Nothing wrong with the defense. Two banked in threes and a fortuate TO off MoJeff's leg; otherwise USF might have 16 points.

History repeating itself from last year with Gabby toughly guarding Courtney Williams.

They can do some real damage.. as you say, so long as it's far away from us!

The Gabster can be quite annoying!

 

[Mdoggie]

Where does Jose find his players? Good group. I don't know Florida. Is Tampa a hard sale?

 

[GoUconn7961]

The defense by Jefferson on Williams was insane!

Brazil, Central Europe....

 

[Blue Huskie]

Observations on the 1st half.

1. Sometimes I think we forget how to get in position for offensive boards because we typically make so many of our shots. When we don't he has to remind them that O Boards are important

2. Mo and Gabby could defend a mongoose.

3. Nice move to give Lou a breather. She calmed down when she returned. She can rack up points real quick.

4. Coaches know they have to zone us and hope we miss shots. Every once in a while we cooperate with missing but it doesn't last!

5 I LOVE our team

He's a good coach. If he gets a couple more really good players USF could be a top 10 team.
