Message: [QUOTE="VAMike23, post: 3411676, member: 150"] The 2010 NC game was not representative of anything but the 2010 NC game. It certainly did not represent the usual Old School UCONN Wbb of the time, the usual result, or the style of play (at least in the first half). That team and it’s season was one of the best ever and IIRC the most dominant in UCONN history by a few measures up to that point. They scored a lot of points and annihilated pretty much everyone not named Stanford, with only a few clunkers. That’s what Old School UCONN Wbb looked like, if 2010 is the timeframe, at least. Of course one could say that our win against the Orange Ones was reminiscent of [B]that one game [/B]back in 2010 in that we had a rough first half and had to fight back, but we’ve several such struggles this season. In fairness, this year’s squad has also notched its share of blowouts and easy wins and will likely have a few more. But our last win was not at all reminiscent of UCONN ball as it was usually played in days gone by. If it had been, Geno would not have been at a complete loss for words when Lobo interviewed him at halftime of the 2010 NC before he headed to the locker room. Instead, he would have just shrugged and said, “Well you know, Rebecca, this is how it is for us these days. We just have to scrap and fight and figure out how to correct what went wrong, and find someone who can start making plays.” But if it takes another 12-point first half for us to win the NC, count me in..!! :D [/QUOTE]
