UConn-Texas Game Thread

That's two bunnies in a row we missed. In a close game those could be critical

Yeah had Gabby hit hers, I think that would have been the dagger. When she was going up for it, I was thinking alright this is the ball game.

I can’t criticize Lou tonight, I just can’t. She and Crystal are keeping UConn in the game

 

[NutmegDog]

McCarty is a player. Earning a ton of respect tonight.

 

[JordyG]

Probably tired

Maybe. Lou has been running around like a demon trying to get open looks.

Collier seems to fade away against the big bigs. Stevens must show big.

Pheesa with 5 points since this post

I had us up by 8 after 3 so... meh. We will see if we make it up in the 4th.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Still 9 behind in the Rebounds. Hope that changes in the 4th with TEX tired legs.

 

[ochoopsfan]

Baskets in the Paint after 3....by me
UConn 4 + 4+ 4 = 12
Texas 3 +5+ 5 =13

From live stats
UConn 11
Texas 9

I must still be in the holiday mood.

Who was it that posted earlier that KLS is frequently missed while she's wide open down low?? SO so true. They find her, but not often enough. That girl cuts non stop. So active this year on offense when she's without the ball. Polar opposite to her mindset 2 years ago. Amazing.

I hate when Geno makes us slow it down on offense. But he knows better than me. Just seems when stagnate when we play at too slow a pace 0n offense.

Texas is a Top 10 team. This should be hard and is.

Collier starting to lock in.
Crystal and KLS playing like All Americans.
Kia playing like a senior leader.
Gabby our bright light on the boards right now.
Z is a force.

Texas giving us their best and still down 6. Just have to keep playing UConn basketball and grind it out.

Maybe. Lou has been running around like a demon trying to get open looks.

They’ve been very physical with her, too. It’s very fatiguing

 

[Kaizen]

Texas is tired ...

 

[Stinger92860]

Probably tired

I thought one of her feet was hit On the way in, looked to throw her off.

 

[Carnac]

UConn is in good shape up six, we need to go on a quick run to begin the fourth. The Longhorns look tired right now. Like UConn, Texas is not doing a lot of subbing.

 

[Centerstream]

Probably tired

Has Lou been on the bench yet? For a rest...

 

[Blue Huskie]

That looked like a 2!

 

[NutmegDog]

Awful call to start the 4th.

 

[Stinger92860]

Great scoop by McCarty

 

[Tenspro2002]

Another awful start to a quarter to get Texas and the crowd back into it. Collier completely out of sorts.

 

[huskeynut]

Pheesa just picked up 4th foul

 

[Stinger92860]

How was that an offensive foul?

 

[HoopsFan21]

Texas back up 62-61

 

[JordyG]

Gotta hand it to McCarty. Collier still having issues offensively.

 

[HuskyNan]

Nice Gabby!

 

[TitleTown]

That was a freaking God awful call on Collier!

 

[huskeynut]

Gabby with the jumper

 

[ASweet3781]

Not sure why people keep posting how tired Texas is. Zero evidence that is true.

 

[NOI33]

Great scoop by McCarty

She's werrrking!!!

 

[JordyG]

Time to step on the gas.
