Looks like they didn't quite nail their facts:
"The Huskies have won 73 straight. Before losing to Stanford on Nov. 17, 2014, they had won 90 in a row."
Wasn't the 90-game win streak back in the Maya Moore days?
Yes, Stanford broke the 90 game streak on December 30, 2010.
UConn started the 2014-15 season on the road. From WIKI:
UC Davis
For the first time in 15 year, the Huskies opened their season on the road, playing their first game in California, the home state of Mosqueda-Lewis. The arena set an all-time record for attendance at a women's basketball game. Mosqueda-Lewis had 25 friends and family members in thew stands, who came to cheer her on. She gave them plenty to cheer about, tying the school record for three-pointers made in a game with
Maya Moore. Both hit ten three-pointers. The Huskies hit their first four shots of the game, all three-pointers, but UC Davis hung in there for some time, until the Huskies started a long run. They scored the final 23 points of the first half, and continued with the first 16 points of the second half, to complete a 39–0 run, believed to be one of the longest in NCAA history. Mosqueda-Lewis went to the bench for the final 11:31 after tying the record.

Stanford
UConn's second trip on the west coast trip was against Stanford, the number six team in the country. Stanford had stopped UConn's 90 game winning streak, the longest in NCAA history in 2010. The Huskies were bringing in a 47-game winning streak to this contest. However, after tying a UConn record days earlier, Mosqueda-Lewis did not score for the first three-quarters of the game. UConn built a ten-point lead with under seven minutes to go, but it up, allowing Amber Orrange to hit a three-pointer with 1.4 seconds to go in the game to send the game to overtime. Tuck and Nurse fouled out, and the Cardinal outscored the Huskies in the overtime period to take the win 88–86, and end the winning streak.
