Is Michigan the Best opponent

[Cornell Lt]

Michigan in a cake walk over Binghamton, 120-50. They shot 66% fg% and 55% 3s. Three starters and three off the bench scored in double digits.

Binghamton is terrible, I'm surprised they scored 50.

If you have any faith in the national rankings, Michigan currently stands at #6.

way too early to trust the ratings, especially for teams that play in competitive conferences......

I doubt Geno will underestimate Kim and Michigan. Kim will not underestimate Geno.

So in this very young season, the question comes down to talent and execution. Here I give UConn the advantage.

Sarah Strong and Azzi Fudd are the two big guns. No one has been able to contain either player yet. UConn also has two players to be the third gun - Serah Williams and Blanca Quinones.

Looking forward to this matchup.

This is one of those games that can get out of hand quickly for a young team like MI that has not faced anything close to what they will see on Friday. In addition, UConn will have 5 days to prepare for MI, the Mohegan Sun will be packed with a loud, pro-UConn crowd and I have a feeling that the Huskies will be motivated to play their best basketball of the season.

Geno and Kim Barnes-Arico know each other’s coaching style from her time at St John’s, the last Big East team to beat UConn at Gampel. She’s an excellent coach and now she has some fantastic talent. I would not pencil in the win just yet

Kim is a well respected coach in the profession. Dawn offered her daughter,, Cece Arico 2027, early in the process and I originally thought it was a professional courtesy . However, I now see that Cece is number 22 in Hoopgurlz.

Just wondering what the UConn women's record is at Mohican Sun. Somewhere around 68-2 since 1994-95?

This game should be well in hand for UConn by 3:16 left in the 3rd quarter (up by 32 pts in my estimation; I just have problems with the final scores and final MoV...).

Go Huskies!!!

Here's all the analysis you need: The team that has Sarah Strong is the team that will win.

Appreciate your avatar as well. I'm sure that you can, "taunt you a second time-ahh!' should anyone disagree in a "come back."

Not very many "Silly English Knights" on this thread, though.

Go Huskies!!!
