Lack of Team Depth and Team Maturity Cost UCONN vs. Miss. State

We had the team to win this game. We didn't need Edwards or Boykin. We were really just a shot or a couple FT makes from winning. Gabby Williams made sure of that.
 
I think we are all saying the same things in different ways. Miss is a v.good team. It was built, say the coach, to handle Uconn. No disappointment there. Regardless of how fit you are these one-and-done games (against v.good teams) take their toll on the body when you have both the physical + psych pressures of playing bigger, stronger and equally quick individuals How can you speed up the game when you are worried about fouls, about coming out for a breather and ball handling. Having said all these things, I am going on a limb here and say that I gave the coaching hedge to the Miss. coach and his game plan.
Lastly, Pheesa and Kia are now free having to visit the White House out of politeness for their teammates and the White House. And, Geno and staff postponed any in-house ranting on the matter. More, the Team will not have to suffer through another summer hearing that they are bad for the game. With the exception of SC (the one who barely became a #1 see) all the other #1 pretenders ended up choking or un-donned. So, parity is here again;) And one more. We will go into the summer with everyone auditioning for a job-- including their old one. Everybody knows that-- including this year's Freshmen class. Only the seniors with their seniority have a leg up.
