I said it last season. One of the biggest reasons we won and did so pretty easily in last years tourney was our defense. 6 games and gave up more than 59 points once. That team took the defense to another level. I wasnt sure this team could get to an elite level defensively but we showed it yesterday. I want to see that defense against more athletic teams. If htey can do that to Villanova, St johns, Hall or Marquette its big trouble for the rest of the country.

Its like last season Uconn would start the game and make a small run and be up 5 or 6 points. Then things would even out for a bit and the lead would go up a point or two but still be close then theres a 10-0 run and the other team is suddenly down 15 and panicking. The lead then fluctuates in the 15-20 range when the other team makes a small run before halftime and get things under control and get it to a manageable 10 point lead at the half. Then the second half starts and its 15-2 run and itd be over. This team showed this last night but what they didnt do is keep the foot on the gas and the BJs got back in it late.
