UCF vs. UConn — Game Thread

[HuskyNan]

Meg doing the right stuff, execution needs practice

 

[Sluconn Husky]

That pass by Walker needed to be made two seconds earlier or not at all. She's just behind mentally.

Greetings from Pebble Beach! Go Huskies!

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

 

[Kaizen]

Walker has 4 rebs... I like what I saw her today

 

[Centerstream]

Meg doing the right stuff, execution needs practice

Maybe trying just a bit too hard??? But I do like her efforts.

What's the point behind going so deep into the shot clock when you're behind by 20?

 

[HuskyNan]

It’s inexperience. She could do that in high school but college athletes, even UCF’s, are a lot better.

MW doesn't look out of place out there........giving team useful minutes.......just needs to slow it down a little bit............

Azura' has zero Defensive Rebounds so far in this game. With her size she should be able to get some boards, especially considering UCF is shooting 25% for the game so far.

Maybe you don't want to be behind by 40?

 

[HuskyNan]

She’s in the right place and has the right idea but doesn’t have the experience to finish

 

[Bama fan]

Walker has some catching up to do. Hope she keeps her head up and gets to play so she gets in the flow.

 

[JordyG]

I like the look in Meg's eyes tonight. The mic's are picking up Geno maybe too well tonight.

Slow down the game, give UConn fewer possessions

 

[Centerstream]

So that they aren't behind by 40???

There is no point. They know no other way of playing.

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Walker back to the bench after the timeout.

 

[BigBird]

At this point the UCF tempo backfires... they have to deal with a 21 point deficit using a slow half-court offense.

 

[Kaizen]

Geno must like Megan today

 

[Charliebball]

there's that patented UCF hip check on Kia

 

[JordyG]

Has UConn played M2M at all tonight?

 

[HoopsFan21]

37-12 half

 

[pvdoggy]

Nobody moves better w/o the ball than Lou, she is working hard, moving all over the places.

 

[HuskyNan]

Has UConn played M2M at all tonight?

Didn’t see it

 

[JordyG]

I said it last time UCF played UConn, but this is the type of game I expect MSS to play against UConn except with better talent. Slow and rugged.

 

[Charliebball]

refs calling it fairly close, no muggings so far.............I'm satisfied

 

[ochoopsfan]

Baskets in the Paint at the Half
UConn 4 + 3 = 7
Epcot Center 0 + 2 = 2

 

[Sluconn Husky]

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.

 

[HuskyNan]

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

 

[Wbbfan1]

Wouldn't be surprised if Geno didn't substitute Megan for Azura' as the last offensive possession, Azura' made no effort to get the offensive rebound.
