Message: [QUOTE="Cuango, post: 4246668, member: 3834"] Agree that fatigue was not what caused the loss but to say it had nothing to do with it is going a bit too far. Boston is clearly a stud and has the edge in the post with every team in the country. That’s not even debatable. However, she certainly doesn’t make SC unbeatable. I believe we have enough to at least keep her fro totally dominating the game. If Liv can hit some outside shots and we keep the rebounding (especially offensive) numbers fairly close, I believe we can survive Boston’s superiority. I think it’s pretty fair to say we have the advantage in guard play and more depth there as well Clearly, SC and Stanford are favorites at this time (and may stay that way throughout the tournament) but I’m pretty convinced we are favored over every other team with the possible exception of NC State (possibly even)! However, we are on an upward trend as our team continues to gel, while the other teams will not improve beyond the (always possible) chances of having “one of those days”! Our defense is now elite, perhaps less so than SC, but we’re not too far behind, we are healthy, Paige is back, our offense is beginning to look like UConn teams of yore, and importantly, pertaining to rebounding, AE has (knock wood) finally come out of the fog she’s been in all season and is playing like she did last season! We’re not [B]the [/B]favorite but we’re close enough to where I like our chances! I guarantee you, this team now has Geno’s full attention and I get the sense that he is in the same mode as he was in Renee’s final season when he worked so hard to ensure that she went off with a title! Here’s hoping for the same ending to a season we won’t soon forget! [/QUOTE]
