a great closing out at the end by our 2 seniors. But I got multiple ulcers watching this...

 

[maple]

Survive and advance. Gutted out a win. Clutch FTs.

 

[Leebo]

Reed ices it
Just how it was planned

 

[Dove]

The National Championship is a bone. And, our team is a bunch of dawgs!!!!

Wooo!!

 

[SportsFan88]

Our 2 super seniors go 4 for 4 at the line to close the game out

 

[blkknight1]

The beast with the soft touch at the end. 4 clutch fts

 

[jorge34]

Who needs a drink?

 

[huskyharry]

Great character to pull that out. Ball was bouncing M States way as were most of the calls but we played tough!

 

[Inyatkin]

Write off Solo Ball at your peril

 

[uconnbaseball]

Massive free throws from Reed for the 2nd game in a row. Dude has been huge all three games.

 

[JakeTheDog]

E8 baby!

 

[navery12]

Good teams and players make their FTs at the ends of games. Case and point tonight

 

[WeAreUCONN]

Incredible hard fought Win. Karaban and Reed made the winning plays. Smith was the most valuable player of this game. I had a dream. We face Duke… stay tuned.

 

[upstater]

They gutted it out. Came out on fire.

Malachi Smith... I know you have it in you to dominate. Just play within yourself... Take down Duke!

 

[Kemba15]

KARABAN AND REED

 

[Mister P]

Whew…win and advance.

I actually thought the high hedge worked well tonight. Demary and Smith hounded Fears and Reeds hedge kept Fears out on the perimeter limiting his drives and dishes to team mates. Fears was 5-15 with 7 assists.
Good to see Solo come home and have a good offensive game.
Reed and Karaban making free throws when it counts.

I managed to get up at 445am to watch the last 8 minutes or so. Now I can sleep easy at 520am.

Reed at the line at the end:

 

[Umami Zen]

Excellent resilience-Tough team D. Tarris with excellent FTs/second half/ at crunch time. AK with a clutch three and senior leadership. Three down . Three to go.

Keeping Luke around for a little longer . Gets to do the scout on our ACC friends for Sunday's game.

 

[KingAG]

Is Alex an all time great yet? Him and Taris are carrying this team.

 

[UConnTrumbull]

Once again we are carrying the Big East

 

[Dove]

Alex keeps on winning!!!

 

[phillionaire]

All those close big east games paid off

 

[JMick]

Reed and Karaban have been willing this team to victory

 

[jbdphi]

That was a stressful watch. Both the tightness of the game and the impending expiration of my one hour of free watching on the MM Live app.

 

[Nameless]

I did my complaining in the chat. We won, survive and advance. Going to need to play a full 40 minutes to beat Duke.

Shouts out to @nomar for the updates in the chat. You were just as clutch as those FTs we hit

 

[KingAG]

Reed and Karaban have been willing this team to victory

Having fun yet?

 

[WhereistheDove?]

Whew…win and advance.

Can’t say enough about Demary/Smith defense tonight on one of the best players in college bball. Malachi has had a tough year but has stepped up so much during this tournament. Could not be happier for the guy.

 

[REB1094]

My goodness. Can’t remember the last time my heart rate was so high during a UConn game

Here were all of our offensive possessions in the last 2 minutes. Karaban 3, Tarris 2-2 FT, Karaban 2-2 FT, Tarris 2-2 FT. Our seniors closed it out

Tarris was a monster all game. Karaban came alive in the second half. Welcome back Solo, great scoring. Silas gutted it out to play great defense. Malachi brought energy. Stewart had minimal minutes but high impact.

It was extraordinarily ugly, but it was a team win. Survive and advance.

BRING. ON. DUKE.
LETS GO HUSKIES
