UConn-Texas Game Thread

Great last few sentences from Geno about getting the bench to a point where they can come into the game to help this team out. They are MUCH needed.
 
Good win. We all know the downside. 6 players. One soph. No freshmen. Auriemma is actually talking about that right now. Seems like Batouly is just not ready. The kind of game where her size would help.

Team got Punched and they survived a Tough Texas Team. Refs allowed their Physical play and there was some home cooking tonight. Stevens should not have been called for a foul on that inbound play, but it did eventually worked to teams favor as Texas player only made one Free Throw. Who knows without the foul, the game might have been tied. Suprised that Katie-Lou missed both free throws. Glad for her it didn't make a difference in the game.

Don't think anyone predicted a four point UConn win.

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

A nod to Kia for her toughness.

Stevens with 16 points and some of our most critical buckets deserves to be in that category as well.

Very disappointing game for Collier, who's developing a discouraging habit of shrinking in the biggest spots.
 
You know Baylor is licking its chops! Yikes! I had to have my nitro close by!

KLS was shooting with one eye.

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

This game is the reason why I watch WBB. Of course, a loss would have been the reason why I scream and throw things at the screen. While watching great WBB.

I love these kinds of games... but my heart doesn't! :eek:
 
Geno made two mistakes in his post game interview. Geno said Crystal was in same situation at Louisville last year and missed both FTs. It was actually FSU and she made the first and missed the second.

Her offense was really good but she gave up a lot of points on the other end.

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.

Agreed. This year's 6 may be better than last year's 6 (though 2017 Collier and Williams are vastly superior to 2018 Collier and Williams thus far), but it's not going to be enough.

This was an Elite 8-caliber opponent, meaning at least 3 games like this on the way to the title. We're not going to win 3 in a row like this.
