Message: [QUOTE="PAHuskeyFan, post: 2098390, member: 7880"] IMO, I Still don't see that UCONN "got screwed." Geno has told his team that they have to EARN IT...nothing going to be given to them. Yes, the bracket is "tough"... but the others are tough in their own ways too... that's how it's supposed to be when you get to this time of the season...top 64 teams. UCONN is overall #1... and that means they get the "lowest #2" and the "top #3"... and that played out to be Duke and MD... OK...Play it as it lies... Frankly, I think the others in Bridgeport Region have it worse...because they have to deal with the 1000 pound gorilla... UCONN!! and THEY know that when they step on the court. Geno says he doesn't like to play teams that they played during the season...i.e., MD... but think about it from MD's side of the equation. They had that Dec 29th game in THEIR House, in front of THEIR 17000+ fans, with Lou sick and Phe and Gabby in foul trouble. Everything was set up for them to win that game, but they did not get the job done. and THEY know that... and not in an "extra motivation" kind of way, but as in "do we have what it takes to beat them." We can assume MD will win against Bucknell... then they have to worry about playing WVU and Duke... before they even can think about UCONN. They know they didn't get the job done when it was set up for them... and neither Geno nor our Girls are going to let them take it from them during the National Championship Tournament!!! Just sayin' .... GO HUSKIES!!!!! [/QUOTE]
