Texas And The Zags

[jibsey]

It’s great that we won at home but if somehow we could get 1 of the next 2, I would prefer the Zags the momentum would be terrific. Texas is going to get the home cooking in that game so winning that one is difficult. Of course ideally we want them both. Thoughts?

As far as I am concerned we are one win into a 26 game winning streak. Losing is never an option

Texas is very beatable, and Gonzaga is on a semi-home court. I’m sure the staff and players expect to win both, and I don’t expect any less. Need to cover up the early season blemishes wherever and whenever possible

 

[uconngb]

With AK back, no reason we can't win both. Just need to continue to shore up the D

If I'm looking back in mid-March on a 16-15 regular season and a BE tournament championship, I'm a happy dude. This team is going to require a lot of patience.

Win the next 2, burn the boats of Maui. Big East season time.

We are not losing that many conference games

If we lose that many games we’re not winning the BET, but I don’t see us losing that many games. There’s only 1-2 teams in the league as good as Baylor and we should only improve as the year goes on. I see a 20-11 type season. Not a three peat but a 7 seed that no one will want to play in the tournament by March.

Gonzaga is a lot better than Texas, “home” game or not, plus losing our next game will take a lot of the newfound wind out of our sails

"Gonzaga is on a semi-home court."

Say what? How do you figure that at "Storrs South"?

 

[Husk1esB2B]

I actually wonder if we can really say MSG is our home court.. i think it's a pretty big deal in terms of media coverage

Prepare for one game at a time, as coaches, players, and fans.

 

[Trudy Gay]

I really don’t mean to sound rude, but what is the point of this thread? The goal is to win every game and so is the expectation from the staff and team.

I think you are agreeing with each other. He was saying "(The) Gonzaga (game) is on a semi-home court (for UConn)."

What would make you think that?

I don't see that at all. UConn has too much talent for that to happen.

From a WAB perspective, Baylor win at home is worth 0.46. Neutral Gonzaga is 0.8. At Texas 0.74.

Nowell out 10-14 days. Shoulder sprain.
