[Hunt for 7]

Great game for UConn. However, the amount of Indiana fans at the game were alarming. I'd say it was 55% UConn 45% Indiana

Thanks for posting this info. I had asked earlier for some feedback on who had more fans at the game. On TV it sounded either even or favored IU a bit.

I thought it felt like certainly more Indiana fans, early on they were louder but as the game progressed and they started losing we were louder

Just throwing it out there, that three off the four teams last night have red for their school color. Both Texas (burnt orange) and Louisville fans would’ve been in red. So the make up of the crowd would’ve looked like possibly more IU fans than UConn fans.

Not to mention, the Louisville and Texas fans would’ve undoubtably been cheering for underdog Indiana; not wanting to play UConn.

Indiana seemed to quit just like those teams we played last year out west in the early tournament. Hopefully we make Texas quit tomorrow.

Absolutely! No quit in our guys. They expect to wear you down. If I remember correctly the announcers said we had 16 second chance shots (or points?) to ZERO for them! I wondered how we were going to handle that front line and we killed them on the boards (Our lead guard had 11 boards). Announcer said at the end that we play with an urgency for Dan Hurley and that the guards never stop getting after you (sic.): "clawing and scratching." I just love that kind of commentary. This is another team of Uconn that may not win every game but their opponents will know that they were in a fight. "Not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in the dog."

If his minutes were doubled in this game he could've had a double double in assists and rebounds.

Be careful there. We got what we needed and the more minutes the more trouble as far as I’m concerned. He was okay, perfect amount of minutes.

Diminishing returns applies with Diarra.

I guess being 45% of the crowd is considered an overwhelmingly IU crowd to Hoosier fans. I consider 80% "overwhelmingly".

The lack of attention to detail by Indiana showed the disparity between Hurley and Woodson. They only boxed out occasionally, they didn’t defend screens appropriately at all and mostly only defended the initial action and they just stopped when Renau fouled out. Mentally they were a weak team.

That said IU is very talented. They should win a good amount of games off talent alone

Well there's about 9 more minutes until the IU win means considerably less than it did 24 hours ago. Figure it out now please, IU.

Looks like they heard you.

Hey in the end they outscored Louisville by more than Texas did.
