I think they're playing down to the competition, which caused the lack of energy and focus. Geno hates that. He wants a consistent effort every game. But UConn has been playing so well that we tend to forget how young they are and inconsistency is a hallmark of young players.

Kyla feeling it today

Hey, Kyla with a three! She now has 5 points

 

[HoopsFan21]

Another 2 for Kyla! 7 quick pts from her

Kyla's 3-3 and has a new career high with 7 point. Terrific growth from her these last couple games.

I am really disappointed in the AAC refs this year. The amount of physicality they permit is ridiculous. I just saw their post defender just bang Nat in the back 3 times like she was pushing furniture. There's no call and it goes on continuously.

Love to see Kyla & Nat running the floor

These success moments are so vital for her progress. The kid can play. She just needs the work, confidence, and trust. She is going to be OK.

These teams know that and take advantage of it virtually every game.

Butler's lack of agility really exposed on that Houston possession.
