Yep... I heard that too...going on just as I got on line to watch some of the MD/IA game. Sounded like the same 2 women (names escape me att), who routinely disrespect UCONN WBB. Neither MD nor IA had much going in the way of defense today...both are very strong offensive teams, but if they have a cold day shooting, they will go down to any quality team.
I agree. And the good teams (Connecticut, Baylor, Stanford) are going to make Maryland and Iowa have cold days shooting.
It seemed like every missed shot was scoffed up with an O-board...or twice, or thrice.
I agree. There's a certain inconsistency to some fans logic. If you want UConn top seeded so that they will have an easier path to the NC,then you really don't believe they should be top seeded. I expect UConn to have at least three competitive games out of a possible six, and maybe even four. As they say, it it were easy, everyone would be doing it.
Geno is being diplomatic. Of course it matters. Like every sport, there is an element of variability and uncertainty. Some days are better than others. The better the teams are that you play, the more likely it is that you end up a victim of statistics.
