Houston Game Thread

[Jimbo]

Nice athletic putback by Gabby, still down 15-12. Houston's made about 3 FGs with the shot clock inside 2.

Nice move by Mo, 15-14 UH, UConn on a 6-0 run

 

[HuskyNan]

Hmm, Houston should watch the elbows...

 

[HoopsFan21]

15-14 end 1st. First time this season that UConn trails after the 1st quarter.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Well that was embarrassing.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Trap on every possession if you don't want Houston holding the ball for 28 seconds.

 

[Zorro]

What color is the air around the UConn bench?

 

[HuskyNan]

Well that was embarrassing.

? Why are you embarrassed?

 

[Jimbo]

Houston's also outrebounding us, 10-7. So that's not helping.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Not surprising. The only way to give yourself a chance is to limit the number of UConn possessions.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

? Why are you embarrassed?

Who said I was?

 

[HoopsFan21]

Gabby with 2! 16-15 9:31 2nd

 

[NutmegDog]

Well that was embarrassing.

Teachable moment for Geno. Plus, it shows how much Morgan means to us. We'll settle down, but not having Ms. Tuck in the middle means a lot.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Butler is in

 

[TitleTown]

Watch Butler shut down the paint.

 

[HuskyNan]

Who said I was?

You did. You said it was embarrassing.

 

[TitleTown]

UConn is bigger than Houston but settles for jump shots. That is just dumb!

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS with the put back. 18-15 7:08 2nd

 

[Sluconn Husky]

You did. You said it was embarrassing.

It is for them. Houston is #220 in Sagarin's rankings.

 

[TitleTown]

Get Stewart down on the block with her back to the basket.

 

[HoopsFan21]

21-15 6:56 2nd

 

[HuskyNan]

UConn is bigger than Houston but settles for jump shots. That is just dumb!

? UConn is up by 5 on the strength of 4 points from the paint in the last 2 possessions.

 

[TitleTown]

UConn is an abysmal 0-7 from 3 pt range tonight.

 

[HoopsFan21]

I miss Kiah. She was the ultimate bad ass.

 

[HuskyNan]

It is for them. Houston is #220 in Sagarin's rankings.

Anyone who thinks teams are going to lay down and let the Huskies do what they want deserve to be embarrassed. Playing UConn is every team's Super Bowl. The first 10-15 minutes are always competitive; the last 25-30 are something else.
