It is true that overall the Huskies had a decent game on offense.  Only Kia and Crystal were slightly below their usual levels of efficiency last night.  That's a big contrast with the offense in last year's semi-final, when the team collectively laid an egg.

However, I do believe that the board's many comments about live-ball turnovers, not understanding how to attack the Notre Dame defense, and tight/tentative play are on point.

The Husky defense is a very interesting question for me, and I may re-watch the game again sooner rather than later to try to ferret out some answers on that front.  I'm particularly interested in the balance between how well Notre Dame played offensively versus how poorly we may have played defensively, why we never really got out in transition, the degree to which the bad officiating did or did not affect the outcome, and why we could not stop their guards from driving to the rim for key layups on half-court sets late in the game.
