New AP Poll (12/5)

[UConnCat]

It's at Rutgers.

The clock will be safe, but the same can't be said for a 20-point halftime lead.

 

[Coler]

It's at Rutgers.

Yup! On ESPN.

 

[HuskyNan]

@Rutgers or Tennessee. I see a faulty time clock in Rutger's future if its at Knoxville!

Rutgers vs Tenn at the RAC in Piscataway. The game is on ESPN 12/13 at 7:00.

 

[Vowelguy]

Oh, I'm rooting for the Scarlet Knights tonight, no doubt about it.

Big East could also use some quality non-conference wins. A bunch of high profile losses (Lou to KY, G'town to MD), etc.

 

[wire chief]

Rutgers up by nine at the half.

 

[EricLA]

Rutgers up by nine at the half.

but falling apart in the 2nd half. 2 point lead with about 10 to go.

 

[VAUConnFan]

It has been their pattern to allow teams back. Miami might be too good a team to allow back in.

 

[triaddukefan]

darn... going to overtime. Come on Canes... we need this one

 

[wire chief]

Tied at 65 halfway through overtime.

 

[triaddukefan]

Miami was up 4 with 35 seconds left... now its going into double overtime

 

[VAUConnFan]

2nd Overtime!

 

[triaddukefan]

Rutgers could very well be the 3rd best team in the Big East ahead of Louisville.

 

[VAUConnFan]

UConn's last overtime game? I do not have a clue.

 

[VAUConnFan]

If they are not better than Louisville right now, they will be by January. This game helps. The Tennessee game will help.

 

[triaddukefan]

Good win for the Canes. Rutgers shouldnt drop a single spot in the Coach's poll in my opinion.

 

[Coler]

29 Rutgers fouls to only 15 Miami fouls. Good effort by us. I actually thought it might have been ugly given this was our first big road test.

 

[UConnCat]

Sounds like both teams showed a lot of fight. A game like should help both teams.

How is Laney playing so far this season? I really wanted her to come to Duke... think it was down to us and yall.

 

[VAUConnFan]

Laney made a huge mistake late in the second half committing the foul with 38 seconds left. However, she did make the shot that sent the game into overtime.

She's been the best freshman for us so far. She got her first double double on Friday against Florida. She's been very impressive. So happy she chose RU.

Where else was she going?

 

[Coler]

Where else was she going?

Her top four was Rutgers, Oklahoma, Duke, & UK.

 

[bbsamjj]

Agree with Color. Through 8 games (not including Miami), Laney has averaged 8ppg, 4.5rpg, 45% FG, 20mpg, and perhaps most impressively, has been trusted to head up the patented 55 press. She's had a few freshman clunkers, but she is going to be very, very good.

Second best freshman is Canty, though she has struggled a bit of late. Such a versatile player though--an excellent rebounder for her size. Averaging 4.3ppg and 4.3 rpg, 2.1apg, 43% fg,

I apologize. The question was asked somewhat rhetorically. There was never any doubt in my mind as to where she would end up.

Mine either, although I did get somewhat scared by those reports that she had dropped Rutgers right before she committed.
