UCF vs. UConn — Game Thread

[oldude]

UCF almost reminds me of watching Princeton play back in the 60's before the shot clock. The only problem is that there's a shot clock now.

Hard to score with so few possessions. If you want more you need to force tempo, trap and press. Geno not really into that kind of thing.

The short bench doesn’t help. Having a couple more bodies to help press, and add fouls to give, would make a big difference.

Lou sees everything so well. Here comes my dose of ACC men's coaches. It is like a dull pain in my head. When it is gone I miss it! Sure wish I had SNY.

there's that patented UCF hip check on Kia

Well at least she's used to it from her days playing hockey with her brother

 

[oldude]

Did it look like Geno is limping? It seemed like he was after the interview. Is everyone dinged up?

I thought the same thing.

Team only had 6 TO's in the 1st half, but UCF managed to slow UConn down bringing the ball up the court. Team misses Crystal's ball handling skills. Team should have more then 4 offensive rebounds. However UCF only has 3

Well, my score prediction is finished already. My MOV though is still in play. This is the type of game where Kia really misses a PG like Crystal.

I thought the same thing.

Maybe he got hurt playing golf today

Both Meg and Eric have said that it is hot in the place and knowing Florida it is most likely humid also. They might be trying to make sure that they can go through at least 3 quarters or more before they bring in the subs.

Nice play by Lou to finish the half. Should have been an and-1, as the foul was quite obvious.

Yup. It appeared to me a couple of times that Kia picked up her dribble too early.

That’s been mentioned before today’s game...

So do I, why can't ESPN spend some money and have a different halftime show.

A healthy Crystal Dangerfield would help too.

He's had that for a while...

Lou 15 UCF 12. Lou also has 4 assists and 4 rebounds.

I had Stef instead of Jen... Such a versatile big. Can do it all.

If you’re talking bogs, Kara Wolters ahead of Stef. I don’t know how you can leave Kerry Bascom and Nykesia Sales off the list.

 

[MilfordHusky]

I got 18" of snow today. I really hate you.

I got fog. So there!!

I believe I saw an article stating that Disney will claim a $1.5 billion benefit from the tax bill recently approved in Washington. They should have a little spare change to give to ESPN.

I think Svetlana needs to be in the top 10 as well. She was their first 3-time first team All-American.

If that means you couldn't play 18 at Pebble today, I feel much better.

A little bit of Rutgers or Nova. Hard to watch.

A physical ‘Nova. Except UCF doesn’t shoot threes.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

#5 is throwing elbows at Stevens....

It’s the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. I’m just spectating.

 

[HuskyNan]

Game is getting chippy

 

[MilfordHusky]

Right, but going deep into the shot clock. More like Rutgers in terms of physicality.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Geno gonna explode if this continues.
