Message: [QUOTE="UCWBB Fan, post: 4277514, member: 12036"] This is my first post here and first of all I would like to extend my congrats to the UConn for a great, but frustrating season. Who woulda thunk it that they would be playing in the NC game back in January. Great fortitude. An observation I don’t think anyone mentioned here is that SC shot 22 of 60 FGs and was 3 of 16 on 3pt’ers. That means they scored 38 points on 2PT and 9 on 3pt for a total of 47. UC was 22 of 54 FG. and was 4 of 16 on 3PT’ers. That mean UC beat SC strictly on FG made 48 -47. I would say that was a pretty even offensive/defensive floor game. Where the SC won the game was at foul line 17 of 26 compared to 1 of 4 for UC. Does anyone really believe that UC committed 10 more fouls than SC. If the refs had called the game “fairly” might there have been a different outcome? We’ll never know, it is what it is. In spite of the ups and downs they had a more successful season than 62 other teams. [/QUOTE]
