Message: [QUOTE="Cuango, post: 5096706, member: 3834"] I think the site likely [B]did[/B] make a significant difference in that game, just not quite enough to allow a severely depleted UConn team to come out with a win. Irc, that was a four point win for SC? Hopefully, we will now get a [B]real[/B] look at the competitive balance between us and what is clearly our current great rival. All the UConn vs SC games since Covid are imo, essentially meaningless in terms of any kind of evaluation as to which team/program is/was superior vis a vis each other! We have not fielded a fully healthy team against South Carolina since 2019 so, although I do give them their due credit for winning those games, clearly, imo at least, the win/loss record for that period would likely be very different if we had been fully healthy. Though I realize I’m tempting fate a bit here, I must say that I am looking forward to finally seeing a [B]real, meaningful[/B] series of games between these two flagships of Women’s College Basketball! Hopefully, these two teams can now finally, over the next four years or so, engage in a series of games where both teams have a healthy roster that allows an even contest rather than a one sided beatdown largely based on healthy vs injured! Again, I fully appreciate what Dawn has done there and acknowledge SC’s overall dominance over the past few years but it [B]will[/B] be nice (knock on wood) to finally be able to play them without one hand being tied behind our back!
