Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 5190640, member: 26"] The announcers called this a "bounce back win" for UCONN. Was it really? I expected a 40 point win over a team who is 3-10 in the Big East (but they were picked 3rd - mystifying). 8 points in Q4 did nothing to build the lead. Defense was solid, ball movement mostly good, but the rebounding was simply not good. We gave up 11 O-boards, and lost the rebounding "battle" by 1 - 37 for PC, 36 for UCONN. Yet again the 3 point shooting was on point... against an overmatched team. Until this team shows they can actually knock down open shots against a good team, I'll continue to be underwhelmed. It's nice for the stats, makes fans excited, but really sort of an optical illusion. I will say I was glad that the subs of Q and Allie did not come in till very late - midway thru Q4. I think Geno needs to give the starters and KK/Ash more PT together for better chemistry. I'm not sure Morgan is an answer off the bench as she continues to just be ok. Bottom line tho, a fun game to watch against an overmatched opponent. [/QUOTE]
