UConn Tenn thoughts

I don't think it really matters this year about the "number 1 overall seed"....

Uconn is going to get it anyways... But whether they do or not, I still see them going undefeated and winning number 13....

Uconn just has too many weapons. Now Allie is a HUGE weapon too. This might be one of the best Uconn teams I have ever seen...

The Stewart/Jefferson teams, Bird/Diana and the Renee/Tina/Maya teams were incredible. But this team might be just as deep....

I count at least 3 first team All Americans on this team... Strong and Azzi for sure and Blanco eventually.

Even KK might make third team.

I was stunned by TN’s performance yesterday against MS St. While MS St deserves credit for taking it to the LV’s, TN appeared to be just going through the motions, lacking energy and motivation.

Obviously, if the LV’s play like that in Hartford on Sunday, the Huskies will lay one serious beat down on them. The 1st qtr is key. TN needs to get into the game early. If UConn puts on one of their 1st qtr clinics on how to play basketball it will be over early.

How'd you like heading to the bench every 2-3 minutes? My bet she loses this team before SEC tournament time and the portal will beckon.

I'm not too worried about Blanca's availability although I did moderate my prognostication a little. As far as motivation is concerned, who was the poster that said UConn is every other team's super bowl? Tennessee is going to the super bowl. Crazy things can happen in the super bowl.

Wish we had the Gampel students for this one.

Huh? Hartford also has a large student section behind the basket and buses that will take the students. They will absolutely be there tomorrow.
Game was close to a sellout. Last I heard only 400ish left. PBA holds 16,294. Should be a great atmosphere.

I think that both Sarah and Azzi play over 30 minutes if not sick and they both score over 29 points. UConn had to much debt and wins by 20.

The early afternoon games on a weekend at PeoplesBank always have an interesting crowd, and this one will most certainly be packed. Some students make the trip over from Storrs. They’ll be a little hungover from Friday night, so it’ll take them a little time to raise the noise. There will be a bunch of typical UConn fans, old folks like you and me, who aren’t quite as energetic as we used to be.

Finally, there will be thousands of young kids, mostly girls. Some will come with their parents and some will come with their youth basketball league by the bus load. All of them will be screaming at the top of their lungs for the entire game like they were at a rock concert watching their favorite rockstars, which is sort of what they will be doing.
 
UConn - Tennessee makes me anxious like no other game. It’s the only game from last season that I never watched. We were traveling during the game and I just couldn’t bring myself to watch the replay. I’m optimistic and hopeful, but I also have a giant knot in my stomach. It’s the result of years of the rivalry and the memory of coach Summitt. It doesn’t matter how much things have changed, it still feels the same and it always will.

Sorry to jump your thread…but does anyone know of a bar/ restaurant that will be open before the game Sunday? I’ve had a couple of recommendations but one opens at 11:30 and the other doesn’t answer at all.
Thank you in advance!

Brown bag tailgate? You don’t even have to bring a cooler! 🤣
