This guy is so hard to bare, it's 50% BS that comes out his mouth, he just says anything. I hope the Big East does leave Fox and he is my biggest reason.

 

[WhereistheDove?]

@Deepster is not gonna be happy about that smackdown.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

That was fun

 

[Kemba15]

We’re good. Really good. Are the Negative Nancy’s going to allow us to be happy about this win?

If that didn't seal freshman of the year, I'm not sure what will. Brilliant comeback game from Karaban.

 

[How Sway?!]

Big O'Connell guy. Always have been.

 

[elmcityboy]

shot 50/40/90 as a team and doubled them up on the glass. that will work.

Nah, that race is over if it wasn’t already.

That’s a great win

Karaban’s ability to defend Hopkins et al is probably number 71 on my list of concerns for Wednesday. Top 5 things on my mind:

1. Does “Rip Van Winkle” Newton show up to sleep walk through the game, or do we get the aggressive offense initiator version of Newton?
2. Do we get solid perimeter scoring and decent three point shooting?
3. Can we get double-digit fast break points?
4. Can we limit turnovers?
5. Can Hurley make quick, in-game adjustments or does he get punked by Cooley?

Got four and half of the above. Just bad turnovers in the first half. Everything else the boys got and led to the win.

[Hey Adrien!]

 

[tuvent08]

Really promising stuff.

 

[HeGotGame]

Out played them. Out coached them. Out hustled them.

Great win!!!!

 

[Mets1432]

Incredible Win. Incredible. No other words for it.

Edit: Wow hanging 87 on Providence is insane tbh.

 

[Umami Zen]

Great team win..Awesome Boards/team defense..Bench played great..Alex asserting himself on O and D.. Joey with the Splash. Next

 

[SubbaBub]

Tbis team decides whether they win or not. The opponent has little say in the matter.

 

[Mister P]

Wanted this game badly.
What a second half by the Huskies. Keep shooting 54% and no one will beat us.
Loved Sanogo’s foot work around the basket creating layups for himself.

 

[HailUConn]

A great game!
AK is sensational on both ends;
AJax played under control a bit.

 

[jibsey]

Providence is a good strong tough team. This was our best win of the year.

 

[UConnSwag11]

Woooowwww. That was a bad beating

 

[UConnSwag11]

Hawkins is a stud. Beautiful game

 

[Deleted at users request]

Couldn’t have asked for a better game. STELLAR defense. Karaban got his revenge on Hopkins.

This team is growing SO much down the stretch.

In honor of the kids in the crowd that put in the work, it's 8:30pm, I've had 2 double IPAs so far and I'm going to drink 3 or 4 more. Enjoy it people!

 

[BugsyCT]

I'm happy. Finally hit those guys in the mouth. This and Marquette were our best conference wins of the season.

 

[SubbaBub]

If the bench can lock up teams like they did tonight we will be tough to beat.

 

[Mister P]

Another good all around game by Alleyne.
3-3 on 3 point shots and steady defense as usual.
