Score prediction thread for OREGON

mntncougar said:
UCONN 88 - 64 Looking back at the Ducks record this year it appears that they seldom scored above the 70s and lost in the high 50's and 60's. Since I don't know their opponents, scores don't help much, but highest win I could find against the Ducks was 99, and most scores 80's or less.
I liked this team's spunk and spark a lot and while I expect we will roll over them I hope for good things from them in the future. Liked the coach, too.

Good post.

The Ducks' highest score in the last 11 games is . . . 77 . . . against Maryland. So, I don't expect them to exceed (much less greatly exceed), say, 65 points against UConn.

UConn, on the other hand, has scored no less than 63 points over the past 11 games. (And that was the Tulane debacle.) Throw that game out, and UConn has scored less than 80 points once in the last 10 games.

These figures can't tell the whole story. We know the Ducks play a more deliberately tempoed game. So we can expect scores of those games to be low. Of course, UConn would regularly have scores in the high 90s and 100s if it didn't pull its starters at the beginning of the 4th quarter or earlier. That's no slight. We have a limited bench. And at times, it has struggled to score in (sorry) garbage time. Look back over the season, and you'll see a pretty consistent trend of low scoring by UConn in the 4th quarter.

I'm looking forward to a great game. And I won't be surprised if the Ducks hang tough. Who knows? Sabrina Ionescu (who you have to love) may have the game of her young, soon-to-be storied career.

But then, so could Lou.

or Kia.

or Crystal.

or Saniya.

Meanwhile, Phees and Gabby will take care of business as usual. (And, to quote Tom Wilkerson in Michael Clayton, "You don't need me to tell you what that means!")

UConn 77

Yeah, I know. It's called "madness" for a reason.
 
It appears that several previous posters have a similar impression to mine. Reaching 80 against the Ducks is sufficient to win.
We'll do a bit better than that. UConn 90, Ducks 65. MOV: 25

Here are the forecasts that have been posted before I had to leave for the game in Bridgeport. There were 14 new forecasters this game, and a huge variation in opinions. Massey has a MOV of 21. Go Huskies!

What is amazing is with all the colorful words and hints at color full words used in the Boney ared
Cat was not allowed ---along with the proper spelling what I call my cats every day of their existence.
I understand that Puzzy (spelled correctly) has a meaning someone may not appreciate--but the manner
it was used in using a Mel Blanc's famous statement ---I tought I thaw a pu---y. Seems Political
Correctness is cutting out even words used in and innocuous comments about the DUCKS.

No need to lecture---I know your reasoning--and it is wrong.

Yikes. Is marijuana legal in your state?
 
Ionescu is the closest thing I've seen to DT since DT.

That said, I don't expect Katie Lou to play poorly two games in a row. She had more bad TO's against UCLA than she has in a month of games. And her shooting was off...for her.

KLS will return to form. Gabby and Napheesa will be brilliant as always. Which will spell Doom for the Ducks. UConn wins 87 -63.

Huskies chase Ducks 81-70. No matter what happens this team has given us all a delightful respite from our cotidian concerns. Much cheaper than another night at the opera.
 
Uconn 82 - Oregon 55
Oregon depends on 1 player (Freshman yet) to make all the plays be passing, shooting etc.
What do you think is going to happen with Geno at the helm?

Water fowl are not defenseless against dogs, huskies or otherwise. We live on a lake and our neighbor's retriever used to love to swim after the geese. The geese would allow her to get close and then swim out to deeper water. This could continue for many minutes as the dog tired and sank lower and lower in the water. We had to rescue him from his own folly more than once. I hope that our huskies are smarter than that tonight.

UConn 79-61. The pace will be too slow to win by more. SC slowed it down and UConn scored only 66 points. pvdoggy, you have it right. No 30+ blowout.
