Prognosticators Game 8

[Husky fanatic]

Depaul has one starter over 6’. Has a good record against low level AAC types. Lots of people should play and maybe we see more than a glimpse of Lexi. UConn 96-55.

This one should be a high scoring affair, but only one team will be playing defense.

Huskies 102 - Blue Demons 73

DePaul usually crashes when they play us. We seem to do well against precision system based teams with less athleticism (DePaul / USF) but I will go 84-56 since I think Geno will use the bench more and I think he sits Lou down.

 

[Huskee11]

UConn was up 37-6 after one quarter last year. Bruno tried to press full court at the start. Bad idea. Looked like a UConn full court layup drill.

He won`t do that again, and Geno won`t embarrass his friend (too much). Still, we score at will, and they hit a bunch of fourth quarter threes. UConn 99-68.

 

[Kaizen]

UConn 108- Depaul 54

Well I guess I'll get in early before all the good scores are taken. Huskies 94-63.

Didn't they try that hockey line switching 5 at a time? Will Bruno try something interesting like that again?

[Fairfield Fan]

We have a lot of kids hurting. UConn 84, Depaul 64

Uconn 87, Depaul 52

 

[LasVegasYank]

Carnac says...........91-59 UConn.

 

[Bigboote]

UConn 99 DePaul 77

 

[Charliebball]

I'm not so sure this team likes to beat decent opponents by more then 30 points and NJ Shore's Kelly Campbell will light it up.................89 - 71

I was at that game with my daughter - all out press then coach put in 5 fresh players and continued pressing - Fun game to watch. Going to this game with the bride - its being played in a new stadium - don't have a clue what either team will bring to the table - UCONN wins of course

 

[Adesmar123]

So.....the ND game was an easy call. DePaul will be a nightmare. Watch out for their guard play. Without a steady substitution pattern UConn will struggle.

UConn 121
Depaul 18

UConn 91-60.

 

[pinotbear]

88-61, Huskies

 

[Rayvin56]

96-58 UConn, with the bench playing most of the second half. After the game, Coach Bruno beats Geno in a pasta eating contest.

That’s a contest Geno might well come in 2nd.

 

[Ozimoto]

A lot of things to ponder. The Huskies should be chomping at the bit to get the taste of the ND game out of their mouths. How much will Lou and Gabby be able to play? Will DePaul be able to keep pace by knocking down threes? Will the Huskies temper the overplay style of defense now that we have seen that a team that keeps its composure and has good guard play can take advantage of it?

Suspending the paralysis by analysis, I will predict that the score will reveal the Huskies scoring 92 and the Demons in Blue scoring 77.

UConn 93 - 65.

You appear to have aged and become super conservative this year - recalling last year you were predicting real blowouts

 

[Rema64]

101-69
I predict all the starters will score in double figures and on the bench in the 4th quarter.
