UConn vs. Cal - Game Thread

[pinotbear]

TBS playing great all-around game - working hard on the boards, moving well on D.

Um nooooooooooooo! Port Jervis is a few hundred miles from Rochester, twit! At least Cicero where Breanna is from is a lot closer at an hour or so.

Wow. That was an interesting exchange between the announcers.....

 

[HoopsFan21]

Geesh these announcers are awkward. Is this the first time they've ever done a game?

I know a number of people here don't like Dorris Burke.. but I'll take her calling any game over Carloyn Peck.

MOJEFF!!

Tuck again from baseline.

Seriously, Moriah just never quits.

Did UCONN lose a little focus at the end there? They scored 10 points in the last 10 minutes of the game. And scored 4 points in the last 5 minutes of the game...

Tierney for 3

Players on the floor seemed to have a mission to warm up Tuck's shooting engine. It worked. But group on the floor looked a little discombobbled for sure. Not to mention it screwed up my game prediction.

Geno's interview, we want to get Stewie 20 shots in different positions, she's a difficult matchup for most people.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Some of the low scoring was due to the lineup. Stef, Stewie, and Kaleena were finished for the day, though Stef came back to help with the press.

 

[Blue Huskie]

Nice win. Choppy at first, maybe because of the tough D by Cal but they couldn't keep it up. You knew that either we would figure it out or they would get tired. I think both happened.

 

[pap49cba]

Geno said games like this are tough... Holidays, coming off a big win, kids leaving after the game to go home... said they really struggled to get into a flow.

If you are ever in the "new" Madison Square Garden, don't forget to look up and take in the enormous and marvelous TV presentation of the game. It is as big as the Empire State Building (well, almost) and it must be ultra-ultra-ultra-HDTV because the image is unbelievable.

Not that it is very easy to miss if you are there.

watching the game now.....gotta love the DVR. I just think that the game was sloppy mainly because both teams could not get any shots to fall. There was a stat at the 11:40 mark that showed we were 2/10 shooting and Cal was 2//16 shooting. Just one of those games. Stewie has such a pretty shot.
