Girls lose :(

[Ewekon]

I only watch this time of year. Bummer.

Great game.

I really don't like that Muffet coach. Oh well. But remember. UConn is bad for women's bb.

Great year girls. Keep rockin'.

 

[HuskyHawk]

Good game. UConn looked sloppy down the stretch. ND got layups and we didn’t stop them.

 

[UConnStats]

As someone who really doesn’t live or die for the women’s team, there were a lot of one way calls there. Gotta level the playing field somehow...

Still, they passed sloppy as hell there.

Muffet is to Geno as Eli Manning is to Tom Brady.

Inferior but occasionally a winner?

Foul calls were pretty one sided late.

Damn. Wild game. Such a bummer.

Kia Nurse and Gabby Williams lost 3 times in their entire careers, 2 of em were on buzzer beaters in the final four.

Two of the ND players couldn’t miss. They had to play a perfect game to win, and naturally, they did.

Go Giants

Classic game. It’s taken everything to knock the girls off these last two yrs. I guess it destroys the narrative that Geno gets all the talent

Refs were horrible, but Kia Nurse did travel on her game tying layup and it wasn't called.

Painful.

They were and they knew it and they tried to fix it with some ghost calls as well but whatever.

Not my point. Every time UConn went inside they swallowed their whistle while they called everything down the other end.

 

[Jaybo]

I hate them

 

[storrsroars]

Don't recall many Geno teams getting to the line only 6x vs opponent's 23x.

 

[Guapo]

I am upset.

 

[Danzz]

They looked tentative on offense but a great game. Fire Geno.

Biggest takeaways:
1) If there's something bad for women's basketball, it's the officiating. That was pathetic. On top of about 8 missed travels, a 17ft disparity, and 2 of the worst charge calls I've ever seen, the second jump in OT was thrown directly over the Notre Dame player's head lol. Just such a bad look.
2) Sid Wilson has to be absolutely livid. Jess Shepard spent 2 years at Nebraska before jumping ship to play for Notre Dame and was given a waiver to be immediately eligible for no reason whatsoever, whereas Wilson attends like 3 days of summer classes and has to sit out. Should have lawyered up, clear as day Title IX issue

 

[BugsyCT]

UConn ladies 0-7 in OT games in the tourney? 4 to ND? Ouch.

For all their blowouts night after night, year after year, they can always find a gut-wrenching season-ending loss when they go up against the handful of other competitive teams in women's hoops.

Frickin Notre Dame and their football TV contract crapola. Go Miss St.

Muffet is to Geno as Eli Manning is to Tom Brady.

While they are now 4-3 over UConn in the Final Four and Championship games, it's hardly Eli's 2-0 over Brady in the Super Bowl

I'll do it. I'll be the one to ask it:

Is the AAC hurting the women's basketball program?

I'll do it. I'll be the one to ask it:

Yes. What doesn't get exposed in 3 months playing against Cincinnati and East Carolina gets exposed in front of 20,000 people facing a real team in a tight game.

No. Their OOC schedule was more than enough to prepare them.

What are you talking about?
