UConn should have blown them out

[Chosen]

UConn should have blown out the Hoyas. Andre Jackson and someone else fouled out and the Huskies turned the ball over most notably one for Rashool Diggins and we kept fouling the Hoyas. Thankfully we made our freethrows.

UConn did blow the Hoyas out.

We are up 20 in a conference road game with about 3 minutes to go and our best player was in foul trouble the whole game.People just like to complain

They did surprisingly well in a trap game against the basement of the BE. Not saying it’s right, but their eyes are probably on MSG.

We were up 20 in garbage time until we had about 56 turnovers in a row by our deepest bench players.

Whenever you post I always assume you’re a little kid so I’ll go easy. However, it was a blowout, captain obvious.

OP almost made me question what a blowout is.

Did anyone’s heart rate climb above 70 at any point during the game?

Hawkins dunk.

Our win probability was over 99% for the last 11 minutes of the game.

Yawn

Took UConn to cover?

Somebody who bet UConn giving 11.5 did a lot more than that.

Anyone who bet uconn in last 90 seconds.

The only folks upset with this game are the fans who took UConn giving the points.

There are people who feel this way. You shouldn't be chastised for the post. But I'm at the point where I am more concerned with how we perform in the big games, with the big crowds in big moments- and this team is right where they need to be.

I took Georgetown +11 last night, planning to hedge it in-game if it stayed close through halftime, wrote it off early in the second half, then things got interesting in the last 2 minutes.

Legitimately the first time I won a bet and felt "wow, I really did not deserve that".

Are you serious or just trolling? I can't tell.

They were up 21 with 2:45 left and Hurley emptied the bench and Georgetown was still pressing and 10 points went off the lead in like a minute. And even with that the lead was never in doubt. So it was a blowout.

Someone didn't watch the game and instead just looked at the box score. lol

 

[WeAreUCONN]

We did blow them out but the final score doesn’t reflect that.

I mean there were turnovers by the kids when don’t get much PT and there was also some really horrendous refereeing the last 3 minutes. I mean I get giving the team losing some calls near the end but that was pitiful. Every time our kids were near them the whistle was blown. Sool caught the ball near half court hit completely bumped no call. Double teams they were swatting nothing.

Truth is they blew them out, nice win especially considering their best big hardly had an impact.

Need to change this Creighton winning streak now!!!!

I'm not sure the Harlem Globetrotters would dominate enough for some people to be completely satisfied.

Two things jump out to me when deciding if a game deserves to be called a blowout. It would seem that if the coach has to put his starters back in the game with just over a minute to go, that the reason is he doesn’t feel comfortable with the lead his team has any longer. That, to me, is no longer a blowout. I can’t recall seeing that happen in a long time. Additionally, is a single digit margin of victory now considered a blowout?, If so, then our standards have been lowered quite a bit!
