Mighty mite going airborne and sweeping the floor, too.

Rutger's scored 7 points in the last 7 plus minutes of the game. They have plenty of talent and should definitely score more points then they do. UConn's got a great defense, but that was Inept Offense by Rutgers.

Much better then I expected. Proud of our ladies. Future is bright for next year with Scaife, and Burke coming in, and Canty hopefully coming back healthy.

Good game guys.

Having the shortest player on the team as your leading rebounder is not going to make Geno happy with the post players.

I bet Bria will be fired up on Monday, and ready to do what she needs to do so UConn has the best chance at beating Baylor.

I'm trying to decide if this is good or bad.

Nice job by the rookies.

Not going to change if you can't score points.

Playing your guys is never easy or pretty.

Good luck with 'Cuse. That would be a big win if you can get it.

We can score. It's just our guard play is too inconsistent. Our strength is our post play, and well if our guards can't take care of the ball...we aren't even going to get a chance to attempt a shot.

UConn even the rebounding at the end of the game. 31 each.

Averaging 57 would belie that statement.

RU took 48 shots, the problem is they only made 17.

I missed the game, why did Hartley only have four minutes playing time?

Geno apparently said in the post game press conference that Bria was ill.

 

[UConnChapette]

Geno just said she has not been feeling well. Wasn't feeling great at practice yesterday, dinner last night, and at shoot around. Gave it a go but didn't work out. Could be part of the reason she didn't play more minuutes - or just Geno's euphamism for poor practice .

Benched along with all the starters except Stef. The others made it back to the floor.

 

[wire chief]

So bummed about Stokes. Just when you see her play some inspired minutes, it seems like she reverts back and becomes a bench warmer. I sure hope she doesn't become the next Heather Buck...

That went through my head too.

Caroline also mentioned Bria wasn't feeling well when Kerith Burke interviewed her. It would explain the benching; either way I hope Bria is fired up for Monday night.

Geez, I leave you guys for one game and we turn into UMass. Anyway, good job bringing 'em home! This means nothing in terms of Monday night.

 

[Wbbfan1]

As poorly as UConn played today, they still win the games they're supposed to win. Its a hallmark of a Geno coached team, find some way to win and they usually do.
