UConn is not a good rebounding team so what Geno has done is gone to a 4 guard offense which creates turnovers.  Turnovers are another way to gain possessions.  As UConns rebounding improves they will gain more possessions.  To get more rebounds alot will depend on Ice and how she improves and gains more confidence as well as some others.  We looked pretty good against STJ rebounding however against teams with height like ND SC Stanford etc we will have to depend on our defense to create turnovers.

Just thoughts on ND and SC.  They are taller then UConn.  I like our defense against them both.  I also like ability to move without the ball which helps us create our own shots.   Aaliyah and Ice will need to attack the rim with confidence and not be intimidated.  I expect KK to spend alot of time on the line because she can cause havoc.

I know some dont give us much of a chance against SC, I do.  I know some are nervous against ND, Im not.  If we play our game like we have been playing with alot of confidence we will be fine.  No team is playing defense like UConn.
