Senior Day score prediction thread [merged thread]

[UConnChapette]

Didn't see one so figured I would start it.

Seton Hall has the unfortunate role of the next opponent after a tough loss. But the emotions of Senior Day may lead to a slow start for our beloved senior Huskies - especially CD who hasn't had a dry eye in the four senior tributes she has witnessed. Can't imagine today will be the day she doesn't shed more tears.

All that considered, UConn wins not just big, but HUGE. 105 - 44.

2 - 1

CD and Heather cry, Kelly doesn't

But I will bet she has very red eyes.

 

[DaddyChoc]

92-38 Uconn (yeah yeah yeah Heather will start)

 

[Frodo]

82-42 UConn
Huskies won't be as productive the first few minutes w/o Dolson and Geno takes his foot off the gas in the 2nd half.

 

[Jim]

Seton Hall comes into today's game with a height advantage (on the coaching staff); Heather starts and scores 12 pts.

 

[Kibitzer]

I look for Stewart to come in after 5 minutes and play the rest of the first half, facing the basket out on the wing, where she will be comfortable and find her perimeter shot and drive to the basket or get matched up against a shorter defender to catch the occasional lob pass from Moriah. I would not be surprised to see 25 minutes, 20 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 blocks.

Let Morgan handle that low post stuff. Or Kiah. Or Heather.

 

[DaddyChoc]

Kib can we get an score?

 

[MilfordHusky]

Chapette started another thread. We need to merge them.

I look for the underclassmen to pay tribute to the seniors. I look for Breanna to make a big step forward and for Moriah and Morgan to continue their solid play. As step 1 in being more assertive, I want Kaleena taking at least 20 shots. She needs to not limit herself. Go for 30 points. Or 40.

The Hall is improved, but no match. With a vocal crowd on Senior Day, I'll go over the top. UConn by 105-50.

 

[CTGirl15]

88 - 46 UConn

 

[MilfordHusky]

I agree with Chapette: 105-50.

 

[EricLA]

I like Mil's prediction. I think the newly found focus of the team in the aftermath of BB going down for the season and the upperclassmen knowing the season is winding down would normally make for a larger margin, but i think he plays Buck close to 15 minutes so the score will be lower as a result.

95-37

If I am Geno I send Heather out there telling we are going to get you touches and I EXPECT YOU TO SCORE. You are a senior and this is your moment to shine show everyone out there what you can do and make your mom and dad smile.

Also, Geno has always had a real soft spot for Caroline so he might get a little emotional as well when she takes the walk to center court

RE: scoring predictions, multiples might be more practical than point spreads....

UCONN pts 2.25X the Hall's pts

A two-fer and then some. If it's not at least 1.75, the board will be grumbling.

Geno: You are not coming out until you take at least 6 shots.

Just for you. (I swore off game threads and handicapping looooong ago.

How about 90-40. Obviously, I like our chances.

I predict 18 points, 17 rebounds and 7 assists for Kelly so she can achieve her 1,000 points, 750 rebounds, 500 assists, and 250 steals on Senior Night.

All right, so that's a long shot. But she'll get there before the end of the regular season.

Game score prediction: 90-35.

Kelly 18 points--check

Kelly 7 assists--check

UConn 90 points--check

A prognostication for the ages! Well done. And Kib was excellent too.

No doubt, she'll get the rest of them, when we need her to. After all, this is Kelly we're talking about.
