Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 4434691, member: 26"] For everyone who said Stanford and SC looked "underwhelming"... These are the 2 best teams in the nation early on in the season. A low scoring game in regulation (neither team scored over 70). Testament to tough defense making it hard for the other team to score. UCONN put up bunches of points against teams they beat last season, then scored under 60 in losses. It's expected when you play a really good team you won't score as much. How about the NC game 53-47 over Stanford back in the day? UCONN did not look great against Texas. We had the lead up to 17 or so, and let them back in the game. A Texas team, who BTW, also lost to Marquette by the same MOV. So 3 games in, this is the first game against a preseason top 10 team who we looked great against. Let's see how we do in the next few games. And BTW this was basically with playing just 5 players. Ayanna gave some minutes and had a little production, Caroline gave us some minutes and had no production, and Ines and Amari got 1 minute each. We have a tremendous starting 5. We need more. We HAVE more - it's just they are injured (Ducharme and Juhaz). There is no way Caroline can be 100%. She's a shell of the player who came on gangbusters last season. The morons who put this team at 6 or lower totally discounted the talent that we have that is NOT named Paige Bueckers. Frankly it was insulting. A 3-seed? Good lawd. Loving this team! Go HUSKIES!!
