As sick as Lou is, I think if she doesn't pass out, you have to keep playing her. She's going to make a few 3's that just might be the difference.

Love to see Butler play stronger when she comes in, but she still seems a year away from being a more steady presence in the " big" role.

IV's are usually given when someone is perilously close to dehydration, which can be life threatening. Gatorade is a preventive to avoid dehydration and cramping.

IVs are routinely given to sick players that can't hold down liquids on their own. When I played football our trainer would put the IV bag in a blood pressure cuff and pump it up slightly to run the transfusion faster.

My only worry is if she'll be able to keep it down if she's vomiting.

Sorry you stick your head in the sand and don't realize how horrible they are playing as a collective

Playing "horrible" ball doesn't get you 36 points in a half against a top 5 team. Let's grab some perspective on this one.

Is there stuff to clean up? Yes. Are we playing horribly? No. It seems that some of us have just become spoiled by how good UCONN normally is...

 

[HuskyNan]

You can kid but they are making mistakes bad HS teams don't make. Stupid turnovers for absolutely no reason, such as inbounds, no effort on box outs, Collier can't make a lay up or a 5 ft shoot, etc...

I have absolutely no idea why you watch UConn. You always sound so disgusted by the way they beat Top 15 teams.

 

[huskeynut]

Big assumptions they will play any better and btw it's a team poor game.

My last response to a negative.

UConn is not playing their A game. I get it and so do the rest of us. So let it go.

Butler's a year away from graduating. Sometimes you are what you are. I don't think there's going to be a huge improvement from her 4th to 5th year of college ball.

 

[StephStorrs]

I'm convinced some people won't be happy unless we're beating the #2 team in the country every game by 103 while out-rebounding them 87-2 with no fouls on any of our players.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Yeah Maryland's size and aggressiveness is gonna kill us

 

[eebmg]

Really worried about gabby's 3 fouls. She is doing so much with out 2 sophomores both having sub par games. In Brenda's half time interview, she said a key point in the game is to get UConn in more foul trouble. It can get ugly if our front court is neutralized.
Lets hope Lou gets a shot of energy, Need her. I think Pheese will get on track.

But she lost a playing year after the transfer, no? I've seen some improvement.

Kia for 3!!! 39-31 9:39 3rd

Kia starts it off with a 3

 

[StephStorrs]

According to Ally, the entire team has been sick or is sick. Gotta love this team!
*Edit: Easy to inference if you read her series of tweets.

 

[Zorro]

Yeah Maryland's size and aggressiveness is gonna kill us

Yup. Doomed!

 

[Schoup]

To all the delusionists..if they play 2nd half like 1st Uconn loses by double digits.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Nice sequence there, 41-31 847 3rd

Kia having a great game. Her and Saniya can save us tonight

 

[StephStorrs]

Great for Pheesa to see the ball go through the hoop.
