What to say, what to say...
First, devastated for Azzi's injury. Speechless as far as that goes. Praying for her, and the team but...
Aside from a 5-minute stretch to start Q3, and about 3 minutes mid-way thru Q4, one of the worst games I've seen against a below average team. Sure, we won. Sure a bunch of players had double figures in scoring, so the final margin and box score may look "ok". Oh, and the FT's were actually really good. 9-0 run on just FT's. But good lawd - what a sleep-walking performance. And the turnovers were mind-numbing.
Having said that, am SO tired of the overly physical play that UCONN seems to endure. Thought we were done with that after leaving the AAC and UCF/ECU. Refs need to start calling actual fouls. Even tho Georgetown got called for a lot. Foul out 2 starters in the first quarter and I guarantee teams will play cleaner.
Is it possible that the plethora of UCONN injuries are in part because teams know we have more talent so they gang up with the physical play? May not DIRECTLY be responsible, but at some point, I gotta ask that question...
Edwards and Juhasz with double-doubles. Some individual nice plays at times, but... Ok on to the next. Let's put this in the rear view mirror please!!!
