Uconn injured in a game again

This post is absolutely correct. The primary reason behind the so-called "conspiracy" wherein ND has a decided advantage in FT attempted is that they are coached and developed to be strong with the ball and to force the action by attacking with the dribble+shot more often than many other teams do. You need experience and talent to do this and that's what they have also been able to bring to the table the last few years, even this year with some key players graduated.

Also part of the reason why they've done terrible against Baylor -- Griner completely shuts down this strategy.

Bria can do it but she's in a slump. We really needed her to be an All-American last Saturday. I'm hoping that Banks can add that aspect to her game. If she were able to do a stop & pop AND drive to the basket, she'd not only confuse the defense, she'd probably tire out a couple defenders.

UConn got a double digit lead on Baylor down in Texas and made it looked relatively easy. It just couldn't hold to the lead due to too many mental errors.

I was referring to ND.
