Message: [QUOTE="caw, post: 4499101, member: 563"] Didn't read this whole thread but just my opinion. Marquette is the best team UConn has played in the BE. The first loss I didn't think the refs screwed UConn. Just a solid team making solid plays and executing a great game-plan. Not saying Marquette will beat PC or X and I know they lost at PC but they impressed me the most because they didn't get that home court reffing to the extent PC did/does. They have flaws, but love the way they play. They came with a solid B+ to A game and UConn didn't. Not to lambast Sanogo but he takes most of the blame here. He just can't take so long in his post game. Attack, or pass. Once he puts the ball on the floor, he couldn't afford as many dribbles against a quick double. Still too many bad decisions by players, just silly T/Os. The guards put zero pressure at the rim in the half-court. Maybe it was just me, but it seemed Jackson had the left baseline a few times and didn't even try to drive. Perhaps it was a trap, perhaps he has a bad first step, maybe it was not part of the game plan, or part of his game. I just don't know what to think of it but between him and Newton, one of them has to drive at some point. Even though he was blocked, at least Joey did drive once. On a positive, Karaban driving was huge. Loved that one. Hope we can see it more. Clingan is a beast, but this was an ideal team to play against, non-shooting five. [/QUOTE]
