Message: [QUOTE="Bone Dog, post: 4385163, member: 12088"] You don’t have to defend UConn to me. I think we showed a lot of pluck that day. But there’s more to this story. It would have been even more embarrassing losing to them than to Ga Tech. Two of those losses would have been demoralizing. In the first quarter, it looked like we were sleepwalking until Evina put the team on her back and shot us back into competitive range. Those drives to the lane might not seem so damaging (points wise) now, but at the time I imagine the girls felt like they were losing control of the game. It took a lot character to pull the team back from that emotional precipice. Thinking of the Louisville game, which Caroline was so timely in. Playing them close might not have been possible if we’d lost in this one. [/QUOTE]
