Message: [QUOTE="Carnac, post: 3358473, member: 5798"] I must admit that I’m s little surprised that some posters believe this game might come down to the final minutes, and this inexperienced ND team can hang with the Huskies for 4 quarters. I’ve been following ND since the beginning of the season. I’ve examined the box score of every game. This is not your father’s traditional ND team. [B]This team will not hit 13 3’s tomorrow.[/B] They lost 4 games in November, and one to Minnesota on Dec 4. [B]This 5-5 team is not that good.[/B] They may keep it close for the opening minutes, but UConn will begin to gradually pull away..............unless UConn comes out hard and fast and puts them in a 20+ point hole in the first quarter. Liv needs to announce/establish her dominance from the tip, and stay on the floor. UConn will be the best team they’ve played to this point. The highest ranked team they’ve played is #16 Michigan State. They lost that one 72-69. UConn will have several things in their favor tomorrow. Home court (Gampel), crowd energy, the students are still on campus, a more experienced roster, and a more experienced bench, riding a 7 game win streak (momentum). I’m going to go Dennis Green here. [B]They are who we think they are, only we’re not letting them off the hook. [/B]We’re going to play UConn basketball, protect our house, keep our home win streak alive, and play like we’re on national TV. UConn May lose a home game this year, but it won’t be to a rebuilding ND team. I also don’t look for Muffet to go deep into her bench. UConn 83 ND 57 [/QUOTE]
