.....no less than 35 points as LSU lacks the size, experience and scoring ability to make a game of it...there's not a chance of this being a trap game given the "Never take a play off" mantra of this year's team along with the memory of that nasty flagrant foul that put Gabby on the floor for a few agonizing minutes in lady year's meeting.....look for full-court pressure from the opening tip, a strong transition push and a high-low inside game that will eventually create open looks from the perimeter along with a liberal substitution pattern that will find significant playing time for everyone.....

Some teams play up to or down to the competition. We've see some of both from this team.
Going out on a very short limb--(plank//??)-

Don't know how this team will play on the road against an opponent that many think should easily beat. Players said the right things after the Baylor win but will they have go into the game over confident. Coaches will make every effort to ensure over confidence doesn't set in, but will the players pay attention? I'm interested to see how the players start the game and hopefully don't wait until the 4th quarter to play their best basketball.

Expecting a double digit UConn win.

I think that the beginning will not be as pretty as the end!
They may have a slight sloppy start to the LSU game after the 110% effort vs Baylor.
But Geno will quickly get their heads out of the clouds and get back to UCONN BB!

This is a road game following a couple of hard fought wins over two ranked teams. IMO UConn will win with little difficulty but I would not be surprised if their play is less than what many are expecting.

Last year's game at UConn was an 86-40 shellacking. I think this will be closer, but not close. I'll go with 75-50.

Road game for a young UConn team but the Huskies still win this one comfortably.

Uconn beats LSU by scoring more points than they do?

Actually, by holding LSU to fewer points than they themselves score. Way fewer.

I was way off on the Baylor game (thought Baylor would win by 5). So no idea what to expect. It's only the 3rd game so we don't have a large enough pool of games to know what to expect, really. If the team who played FSU shows up, I could see it being a 10-12 point win. If the team that played Baylor shows up, I could see it being a 30 point win. I'm going to say we show up as a team closer to our effort against Baylor and say a 23 point win -
