Seriously? Is this a conspiracy? They are doing a half-time report on bull riding and the bucking bull industry? Can't they at least let my back heal? After my recent experience I have new found respect for bucking bull and horse riders.

I thought it was a horse for you, Chappy? or were YOU throwing the bull?

Why did Bria sit on the bench for most of the half?

Foul trouble. Considering what the refs let go, it was ridiculous she was called for 2 fouls so early in the game.

Brianna was whacked in the head which made her stutter step. They called a double dribble. We backed up the DVR to be sure and, yep, Louisville hit hit her.

You can't say it's a poor loser since we're so far ahead but I'm afraid someones going to get hurt. Watch off the ball everytime we try
to cut thru the lane or backcut.Refs cannot keep allowing this to happen . Watch for a big T by Geno if this continues

This is actually a good kind of game for us. UL grabbing, holding, pushing. Rough game. No flow. Cutters impeded. Hmmm.

Sound familiar?

Like Notre Dame maybe?

Much the same thing happened in our last 2 games against the Irish. In the NC game, we definitely didn't adjust like we needed to. In the first game of this year, we did a better job but still could have responded better to their style of play.

How will we look in the 2nd half of a similar game, albeit with a much less talented opponent? I would like to see a decided adjustment at the offensive end, since Geno was so adament at half about the need for something different.

We shall see............

Wow - unusual for him to speak like that at the half. I just hope no one gets hurt.

I think he's pissed-off (as am I) because he's worried about a potential injury. Kaleena was in a low post position and got rolled up on from behind by her defender like an offensive lineman clipping. Could have been a serious ankle injury as she temporarily hobbled away. Moments later, Tiff gets run over on a what should have been a vicious charge call (blocking called) holding her leg.

Geno will fight fire-with-fire in the 2nd half.
 
Nice to see that OC's favorite player is still on the team, Shelby Harper.

Horse, but a bucking bull is close enough. In fairness, it wasn't the horse's fault. Vincente was a very nice horse. I had no business wanting to gallop being a pretty inexperienced rider. But you know, you are on vacation, you want to experience the most out of it that you can. Just wasn't expecting a Mexican hospital emergency room to be part of that experience.
 
Just got in and set up Gametracker. Thanks.

Bria misses the drive in transition, but we get it back on a brick jumper by UL.

Now CDoty for 3 from the baseline!!!
 
She IS the Honey Badger tonight, no question!! epitomizing the HB actually

Kara just said there is a contingent from Uconn checking out the Louisville facilities!!!

It sounds like we're playing the Rutgers teams of old. My stomach has the same "worried someone is going to get injured knot"

I'll be glad when this one is over.

great post positioning by Stef and a BOUNCE entry pass by Bria, right on target. 2.
 
.-.
Stef can get that post layup any time her teamates can get her the ball.
 
Nifty dribble drive and dump down by Tiff to Stef, who can't quite handle it , dribbles out and passes back out.

Schimmel hits.

Now Stef gets tangled..... nasty look from the UL girl.... Doty says talk to the hand!! literally
