Will need a good 15 minutes from Natalie. And a spark off the bench from Crystal. UConn 81-69

 

[Rayvin56]

87-69, UConn. Despite it being a home game for MD, I think the 12 point spread on the Massey ratings is low. MD hasn't seen a bad ass defense like this...

81 - 74, turtlez on their backs

Not even close. UCONN after Christmas??, away??? UCONN finally gets that @ss kicking Geno's been talking about.

Turtles in a laugher, 87-61.

This one is hard to call but Maryland is due a big win and UCONN is primed for a loss, as Geno has been wishing for.

69 - 64 Maryland

ET, It appears that you've had too much "spiked" eggnog. You're not sounding like your usual "rational" self.

 

[Sonny44]

80 - 67 our gals.

 

[huskeynut]

Tough game - dog fight all the way.

UConn 71 - 61.

 

[HuskyPhan]

Uconn 77-61. All teams have a tough time with UCONN's lockdown defense and Maryland's ytd cupcake schedule is really going to make it even harder on them. I just don't see them being able to put up the points necessary to hang with our super Huskies!

I can see UConn in a runaway for 2 reasons: (1) Maryland's schedule has not prepared them for UConn, whereas UConn's schedule has prepared them for a tough game. (2) Maryland starts 2 highly regarded freshmen, whereas UConn starts 2 very highly regarded sophomores. That extra year of experience is big. Destiny Slocum and Kaila Charles have never faced the intensity that they will see tonight.

That said, Maryland played us VERY close last year on a neutral court and has some good players. Both Brionna Jones and SWK shoot high percentages. They are a good team. Are they a top 6 team or a top 2 team?

My biggest concerns? Foul trouble is one, of course, but my biggest concern is illness. This feels a little like the Stanford game that ended the 90-game streak. It's the same time of year, and Geno and Tiffany were very sick, plus Maya may have been sick. If Geno and the team are healthy tonight, I think we win. If illness is a problem for us, it could be very tight.

I tend to get more nervous and worried as game time approaches. Back in October, I thought the ND game was the toughest game on the schedule and Baylor was the second toughest. I saw tonight's game as a win. I hope that initial thought was right.

Somebody will be sick after this game?

Anyone? Even Notre Dame?

Anyone? Even Notre Dame?

Yes. For me, it's the style difference between Freese and McGraw.

This has been my worry game for a while...a loss tonight might not be as bad a thing as some would think. My sense is that entering the NCAA tournament being undefeated and with a 100 plus game win streak would add a lot of pressure in what will be a very competitive series of games. Terps 81-74. We could look back at this game as the one that made us a better contender for the NC.

The best thing that could have happened to Baylor was that early loss to UCONN. I am not saying that UCONN wants to lose to Maryland, but a loss can be a good thing in the long run. It allows the coach to get the team to refocus on some of the finer details, although Geno does a pretty good job of that without having a loss.

UConn by 16. I did however have a dream that said 87-60 UConn so....

78-68 Huskies
