UConn v. Tulsa — Game Thread

[HoopsFan21]

Collier and Z with special shoot around session with CD today

All the posters who are not impressed with Q2 remember KLS was not out there. Bet you could take 3 of the bench players teamed with KLS and Z and the result against Tulsa would be quite similar to the starters.

As they use to say in ice hockey Gretzky and 4 HS players could beat the Rangers.

Kia for 3!!! 51-29 6:41 3rd

Our bench is now known as the "even-numbered quarter starters."

Rebounding not much better tonight.

 

[HoopsFan21]

UConn defenders leave their feet too much just to have the offensive player go around them wide open

 

[NutmegDog]

We over pass it at times. I get unselfish play and all, but take the lay up, Danger

KLS heading into the locker room to have her left foot/ankle looked at

 

[Blue Huskie]

That darn ankle again for KLS

 

[BigBird]

Lou’s foot hurt again...

 

[MilfordHusky]

Anybody want to shoot on the fast break?

 

[oldude]

Lou's foot again. Not good

So this game has already showed us 1) how far the bench has to go before it can be trusted in important moments, and 2) why it would be nice if at least one or two of them could be trusted in important moments (KLS's wear and tear).

ND is within 10, but Tenn is shooting 61%. They are tough to beat when they shoot like that.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Collier misses two more free throws. Nothing explains her regressed form on her shot.

It's either mental from the Miss St game or the dude she worked out with all summer.

 

[Charliebball]

Hate to say I told you so but as I suggested earlier KLS should have never returned to this meaningless game.................

 

[Bama fan]

I have a theory. I think Geno was aware of the buzz about his short bench coming from reporters and fans. He played the reserves all at once to put an end to all of the arm chair coaching.

Based on what I am reading here tonight, he was not successful at that. Too many armchairs I guess.

 

[Blue Huskie]

ND is within 10, but Tenn is shooting 61%. They a

L'Ville shot 65% against them. Are they hitting hot teams or is their "D" really bad now?

OK - I LOVE the Huskies - but we should be beating this team by 50, at least...
Again - disclaimer - my opinion.

I've noticed a lot less armchair coaching since I've made fore frequent use of the "ignore" feature - LOL Definitely a sanity saver.

True - maybe the letdown after that grind it out game in Texas?

I didn't even know that function existed until a few posters mentioned it...lol

Don't think we'll have predictions that will come close to tonight's score. The reserves have played too many minutes and I also think it has impacted the play of the starters. They don't seem to be as motivated as usual.

Not yet, but they were a 53-pt favorite.

 

[NutmegDog]

What happened to our D. Now the whole team is defending like the subs.

 

[ASweet3781]

We cannot stop them defensively right now.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Nice quick layup Molly!

 

[HoopsFan21]

Nice pass by Collier to Bent cutting to the basket

 

[oldude]

Wakefield is having a very nice game

 

[Wbbfan1]

I wish Geno would put Megan or Mikayla in the game. Molly doesn't have the quickness or the instincts to keep up with any of the Tulsa players.
