It was a great effort by South Florida

[Mr. Wonderful]

One of the great secret joys of being a UConn fan is getting to watch everyone's best game.

Rich Hollinberg, Bob Wentzel's broadcast partner last night, has covered South Florida several times this year, and mentioned, "boy, this is easily the best they've played all year."

I watched South Florida myself the last two games. What I saw was a team with some athletic talent, but was prone to long scoring droughts.

That didn't happen last night. Let's face it, they were jacked up. A lot of that had to do with who they're playing. One of the preseason league favorites. The Defending Champs. The most storied program in the league for your conference opener.

I say congrats to them for stepping up and coming to play.

They gave a great effort, lots of energy, hustle, and aggressiveness. They were also a little streaky hot from deep.

UConn got a tough test and Lamb responded with a terrific display of scoring prowess.

It was fun to watch and I secretly hope other teams bring similar efforts. I think I'll not be disappointed.

It was great to see UConn in person, and a road BE win is all that counts. At times, USF gave a great effort, exhibited lots of energy, hustle, and aggressiveness. In contrast, on other occasions they also stood around on O and failed to box out at both ends. Be happy USF took some time off, UConn put forth enough effort, and take the W.

Come March, the W will be all that matters
