UConn-Texas Game Thread

By the skin of a hen's tooth.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Escape! GREAT game and test.

And Astin really did a fly by on Geno for the handshake.

 

[iri10]

Geno's scalp is going to get plenty of massages as he goes over the tape of this one.

 

[HuskyNan]

Crystal and Lou Players if the Game! No question about it

A nod to Kia for her toughness.

 

[BigBird]

Crystal Dangerfield for the win!

 

[ASweet3781]

Z. Defense. Sigh.

Really? It was a bad call.

Did Z do anything good tonight?

 

[Husky fanatic]

Whew!!!

 

[Carnac]

Whew!!!

 

[Kaizen]

We win... yes yes yes

 

[Mdoggie]

What was the final score?

My husband the non basketball fan was on the edge of his chair!! What a game !

 

[BigBird]

Lou looks like she just went 3 rounds against McGregor...

 

[oldude]

I’m way too old for this, but a win is a win.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Geno: "I'm really proud of this group right now"

 

[hugefan]

What a win but Jesus KLS eye is really bad.

 

[Kaizen]

What was the final score?

75 - 71

 

[Mdoggie]

Before some of you get going. There is no such thing as a moral victory in sports.

 

[trb123]

The Huskies played like the Ladyvols but Texas was not fooled. We were lucky to get a win.

 

[NutmegDog]

This team will not win a NC playing only 6 players. One of those bench players needs to find a way out of the doghouse.

 

[DefenseBB]

Iron strengthens iron! Texas played out of their minds tonight. Happy for both team and can’t wait to see the pressers after the game.

 

[Carnac]

Crystal made the two biggest free throws of her career in the final seconds of 4th quarter, making it a two possession game.

 

[Kaizen]

 

[ASweet3781]

Whew that was a gut check win. Got a lot to work on.

 

[DallasBUFan]

Texas I am impressed and proud. Great game for UConn to learn to dig deep and win.

You don't know that.

What a win but Jesus KLS eye is really bad.

No wonder she missed those foul shots, her eye looks swollen shut.

 

[ochoopsfan]

Baskets in the Paint Final

UConn 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 =16
Texas 3 + 5 + 5 +2 =15

Stats on line has it UConn 15 Texas 12

 

[JordyG]

Really? It was a bad call.

Did Z do anything good tonight?

Yeah. She played on the winning team. But again, as Geno said, she played both ends of the floor really well.

 

[bballnut90]

Huge break at the end with that foul call—it put a bad shooter on the line and ended up preventing Texas from getting a shot to tie. Props to Dangerfield for closing it out and to UCONN for putting themselves in a situation with the lead at the end.

 

[ASweet3781]

Geno says concerted effort will be made in next week to develop our bench. "We need them".

Music to my ears. 6 is not enough. Megan. Kyla. You're on the clock.

 

[Carnac]

Did UConn win or survive?
