Top 3 Things You Want To See Wednesday Night Against Xavier. Game is at 7:30 p.m. at the XL Center and on SNY.

[meyers7]

1. Brady and El Alfy on an upward trajectory
2. Aubrey in uniform on the bench
3. no more injuries

Last and definitely not least, Cincinnati chile for supper!

Chili on spaghetti ain't right.

 

[Cornell Lt]

1. No stopping Sarah in this one (25+ pts)
2. Jana has a double/double
3. The real Ash shows up in Paige's absence

 

[Conndog]

If the Doctors/Trainers say she's good to go, I'd think she'd want to get the most out of her last year. Gotta throw caution to the wind if you're gonna do something grand.

Just get her to agree “no more diving on floor”- have her and Azzi sign paper stating this

 

[Rowdy831]

Since Paige is out I will participate.

1. I would like to see the big lineup with Sarah, Jana and Ice on the floor with Azzi and KK
2. One of the youngsters to step up and have a big game on the scoring end. Defense has already been solid.
3. Work the low post for scoring and to set up open threes

 

[The CDR-Ret]

meyers7- - - I'm just using extreme caution!
With all the injuries UConn has dealt with for the past 3 years it would be horrible for Paige to push it!
She's already scared to death that her UConn career was over as she grabbed her left/bad knee!
Let her have some more practice days to mentally get over the incident!

As for me, with Geno saying "she [PB] should be back in a week" means participating in practice, then seeing how the knee reacts the next day before getting into game competition. I am optimistically looking at this "time off" for Paige as a positive opportunity for the youngsters to get more game time to gel into their roles, and step up in confidence in executing what each of them do best!

Just like Geno said to Nike as she was joining the W: "They drafted you for a reason! Just do what you do BEST!"

One practice without the knee "blowing up," or greater than normal level of pain will be all that 'Doctor' PB will need after being cleared by the actual Dr.'s to "drop the clipboard' & jump into actual competition - even with limited minutes as a precautionary measure. Paige's mental toughness is off the charts!!!

Go Huskies!!!

3-Way Chili is the best!!! Spaghetti with cheese, onion and chili on top is DA BOMB!!!

Maybe you'd like to bubble wrap them? Thats not how UCONN plays.

Fortunately it’s not really chili in my eyes. It’s kind of like comparing a generic meat sauce with Bolognese. Both good but very very different.

 

[VA Huskie]

1. Continued improvement by Jana
2. Alli hits multiple 3’s
3. Azzi regains her shooting touch
3a. Sarah gets 30 points

Yes, chili is chili, "gravy" is "gravy".

 

[Tonyc]

1. Everybody steppin up
2. Playing with confidence
3. Attacking on offense with no hesitation

 

[MSGRET]

Yes, chili is chili, "gravy" is "gravy".

And it would be "gravy" if Cheli scores in double figures tonight!

 

[cgshuskie]

Hoping Morgan Cheli has a breakout game. Expect her to join the rotation as big guard or small forward. In addition Jana gets more game experience. Allie hones her three pointer!!!

 

[Happydad745]

Take the lead Efficient shooting Attack on defense Make it count...

 

[BBallF]

1. Azzi does need to get going at some point.
2. This is another team you would hope Jana and Ice could dominate.
3. Look for lots of minutes for Cheli, Q, and Allie.

Xavier is one of the worst teams in division 1. I think the worst team we have played this season. (Maybe Boston?)

It's all about Azzi , Jana, and Ice tonight for me even though I would like to see Q and Allie make strides. We need 15 shots minimum from Azzi.

 

[MilfordHusky]

1. Azzi and Sarah combine for 50.

2. Allie makes multiple treys.

3. Ice and Jana combine for 15/15.
