UCONN vs Houston Game Thread

[Doctor Hoop]

Uneven officiating, to say the least.

Gotta. Hit. Free. Throws.

 

[blackbird]

I'm gonna go ahead and make a prediction that by the time he leaves, Vital is going to end up one of my all time favorite huskies. Seems to have the clutch and toughness genes.

UH is really good at those curled layups. Tough to stop that.

Seems to have lost his free throw genes, and now I have to change my underpants.

 

[BlueDogs]

Have to make foul shots

 

[UConnDan97]

Never nervous Purvis...

 

[Doctor Hoop]

Last 1 and 1, the rest are 2 shots...
Make
And
Make

Nice

 

[UConnDan97]

Purvis didn't want his career to end yesterday. He didn't want it to end tonight. Adams agreed. So did the rest of the Huskies. Pride, baby...

 

[Bomber36]

They just made my week!

 

[jayteeman]

Houston you are not a problem.....anymore

 

[nomar]

It's sad Deepster had to miss this one.

 

[BlueDogs]

Why am I still nervous

 

[UConnDan97]

Betting against UConn in a tournament is like betting against a Sicilian when death is on the line...

 

[UConnDan97]

Purvis!!!

 

[guyergym]

Live to see another day. Let's keep it going, guys.

Ollie waits to start coaching in March (it seems).

Best Ollie coaching job of the season IMO. Really solid job tonight from Ollie after what I thought was one of his more difficult nights yesterday.

 

[BugsyCT]

UH backed off early. Was still a 9 pt game.

 

[Matrim55]

lol Rodney... I don't even know what to say

 

[BlueDogs]

Spent some serious energy tonight. Gonna have to bear down again. Nice win.

 

[BugsyCT]

Great effort by all tonight. Congrats Huskies!

It's March. It's what they do.

"This is our time of the month."

-Jalen Adams

"We're totally in sync."

 

[Travelman6]

Shhhhhhh...

No worries man.

 

[UConnDan97]

This is the first bball thread I have ever set up. If we lose, it will be the last.

Whew! I can do this again sometime...

 

[Doctor Hoop]

As the penguins did in Madagascar, just smile and wave, boys, smile and wave.

 

[jayteeman]

24-44 - FG
8-17 - 3pt
18-22 - FT
That's just a big W W W

 

[David 76]

There have been at least three possessions that will not be seen in the stat sheet, but Brimah absolutely changed them...

Don't forget Purvis' defense. Even bigger and am so won't show on his stats.

I've been the biggest fan of Rodney's defense all year (with much backlash from the Yard). He's our best on ball defender in my opinion, and he showed it again tonight...

 

[HuskyHawk]

Takeaways. Adams showed up. Rodney showed up. Vital and Jackson were what they are. Facey....still a no show. So tomorrow...Facey returns to the promised land. This is possible.

Dotson killed us in the past. Rodney neutralized Dotson.
