By " it wouldn't have mattered" I mean...once UCONN got behind, the game was over. We never re-took the lead. It is amazing that it ended as closely as it did. But the score was mis-leading. SC was in total control. We never were going to lead again . And didn't.
After that inbound play (working to USC favor) South Carolina also scored. It should have
VERY, VERY SAD, indeed!
If anything should have brought Geno onto the court, it was this mis-call ( or non call ). Instead, he reacted for nothing ( his earlier technical ) and it cost us.
I agree. I think our coaching today hit the rim.
77 points against the #1 defense in the country and Uconn only scored by miraculous effort? No, Uconn scored 77 points because they have really good players who made really good plays. That’s what top teams do.
Not true. Cooke shot 2-15. Unless she missed one of the layups you mentioned.
You actually think that the coaches have instructed her not to shoot, seriously ?
I hate to beat up refs, but I'm wondering why Boston can hip check and move on her screens.
In my opinion the tech was warranted earlier when SC had the ball so UCONN didn't lose a possession.
In a 40 minute game, how many other times was Cooke not even a factor? Wasn’t that Aubrey’s defense too?
Also extends her arm into defenders throats. Gets away with way too much.
The truth matters, you are correct.
The offense did tend to stall at the perimeter (a combination of good defense and uncalled grabbing and bumping) and some the point producing take it to the rim efforts bordered on the miraculous in a good ! way
Hopefully Azzi and/or Caroline come back healthy then she is coming off the bench.
Thank you. I was wondering what article of clothing the SC defenders got faked out of. There must have been several SC sports bras left on the court. Lou, Aaliyah and Aubrey all had some moves leaving their defenders in the dust. Reminded me a bit of MoJeff.
It doesn't matter who starts and who doesn't. The minutes will most certainly be spread out by Geno efficiently throughout the game. And Aubrey is still, based on the body of work so far, the Big East Defensive Player of the Year. And yes, once Azzi is healthy and is able to go full out, she will start over Aubrey. However, I don't believe, at this point in the season, that Caroline would start over Aubrey.
Well, my hubby said Lou faked them out of their (male undergarment) but I thought sports bra was much more accurate.
shovel pass I guess he thought ? To give the girl credit she did come hard to the ball when she saw that the passer was in trouble, while we failed to come to the passer on our turnover
I noticed the same thing. Also, two of our best players got into foul trouble early, including Edwards, and the last thing UCONN needed was her crashing the boards and earning an early exit because that's pretty much the way foul calls seemed to be going.
