Message: [QUOTE="Oldbones, post: 1995289, member: 5753"] I'm die-hard UCONN, and I found the Maya Moore-prompted incident most unfortunate, but I believe that we need to remember: The 1995 MLK game was an important game, as MSSportsGuy said, making it more than a regional rivalry (although to me Notre Dame/UCLA football is a real national rivalry based upon distance, longevity and intensity) Kudos and gratitude to Pat Summit for agreeing to play that game for the good of Women's Basketball. While we like to claim 4-0 in national championships vs. TENN, they did win national semifinals vs. UCONN in 1996 and 1997, including a solid win over an undefeated 1997 Kara Wolters-led Husky team, making the tournament head-to head 5-2 Huskies, I believe, in the tournament. UCONN/Notre Dame is 3-3. Did anyone else win more than one? Unlike several other programs who shall remain nameless who dropped UCONN after repeated whuppings or while foreseeing the same on the road ahead, Pat stopped the H2H series while Tennessee was still "on top" as a program, having won the most recent 3 games vs. UCONN and in the midst of winning her last two NCs.
