Top 3 Things You Want To See On Sunday Against Tennessee- Game is at PeoplesBank at Noon and is on Fox

[BBallF]

After a difficult 1st quarter against Xavier and then a record tying shooting performance by Allie, there are obvious concerns about this game, which looms so large for many reasons, including the last major test before the post season, the last team we lost to, and the greatest historic rivalry in women's college basketball. We saw Tennessee play at Barclay's and they are very, very big and physical but had a hard time against Louisville's second half press. I will be coming up from Jersey for the game so here are the top 3 things I want to see:

1) Blanca and Serah- We need their size and Blanca's game changing defense and scoring.

2) Azzi- It will come back against the Vols. Keep shooting. If the 3 is off shoot the pull up, if the pull up is off drive, but stay aggressive on offense.

3) Stay out of foul trouble especially Sarah, and KK. Vols start at point a freshman from the USA Today #1 high school team last year, Morris Catholic of Denville, New Jersey. She had trouble against the Louisville press and trust me, nobody presses the PG like KK. Not even HH, not nobody.

You gotta have 3 for this game so dish please.

Patience
Poise
Energy

This is why they came to UConn. For a game like this. They will be very focused, pumped and full of energy. The execution will be crisp because this is what the great ones live for...games like this.

1. An earlier injury report. I hate surprises.
2. A return of all of our rotation players (not Ice or Morgan)
3. A beatdown so brutal that Tennessee loses their will to compete for years.

a complete demolition of the orange guys
everyone firing good 3 pointers
our D causes 20+ turnovers

 

[Topdawg]

1. Solid defense down low and shooting with soft hands. Too many bunnies being lost.
2. Pressing defense for 40 minutes to limit their outside shooters and cause turnovers.
3. Re-establish consistency in our shooting and dominate game after getting an early lead.

 

[Zarathustra]

1. A healthy Blanca and Serah, and Carol
2. A "hot" AZZI
3. A hot ALLIE
P.S. Kayleigh in one piece at the end of the game!!!
