UConn vs. KY - Game Thread

[ursusminor]

Stewie's been drawing fouls like her name is Kelly....

 

[WNBARookFan]

48-26 UConn at halftime. Bre with 13 at the half.

Is that a typo or are they really down 22? Yikes!

This is the first time I've felt this all season:

Uconn looks like a national champion right now. They are playing like warriors tonight. And with precision.

 

[JellyBean]

UCONN!!! UCONN!!!...30-8 run buy our ladies of UConn.....

 

[Laramie]

down 22 and all D Burke can utter is Kentucky Kentucky Kentucky

 

[Vowelguy]

26-3run to close half
With only score being that lucky banked 3.

MO...superior...!

 

[stick]

wow, did not expect that kind of a half. I don't think UConn's played a better half.

 

[Icebear]

You will not out run and out condition UCONN.

 

[BugsyCT]

30-8 run. Keep it going 2nd half!

 

[UConn990411]

Those last 10 or so minutes were a defensive clinic. You won't see better D than that on any level.

UConn ended the half on a 26-3 run. Wow.

Samariae...getting schooled by Breanna...

Kentucky matches up well with UConn on a "player to player" basis...NOT!!!

 

[pinotbear]

toward the end of the half, KY got that "ungulate in the halogen" look in their eyes..

 

[alexrgct]

Seriously, I realize UK isn't Notre Dame, but if Uconn plays like this against ND, they will win. It really is that simple. And yes, I realize this game isn't over yet. And so does Uconn.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Ohhh...I think 20 minutes of dread may just about do it...

 

[Blueballer]

KY is fortunate to have started the game hitting shots. The knock on them is their half court defense. They were cold at the beginning the Delaware game but wore them down. Not going to happen with us.

 

[Replicant]

Whose House? UConn's House!

 

[JellyBean]

We can not let up at all. Keep our defense up...and bring it!! 20 more minutes. Let's go, Huskies. Now that is halftime, time to let the dawgs out.

 

[Replicant]

Ohhh...I think 20 minutes of dread may just about do it...

Ohhh...that was 20 minutes of dread alright!

 

[Samanthabrown3]

48-26 at the half. I feel much better about this game than I did last year's!

What's impressive is everyone who's stepping up. Stef is hobbled, KML has two fouls, MoJeff was out while they were tending to her knee--and subs come in and pick up where the others left off.

 

[UCweCONN]

Do they normally interview college players at half-time? Seeing Stewart being interviewed struck me as odd.

 

[OneTrickPony]

Moriah Jefferson the most athletic guard in the first half...Kara Lawson again proving just how perceptive she is...

 

[Icebear]

Ohhh...I think 20 minutes of dread may just about do it...

No one understood what KY's motto meant. It was "40 Minutes We Dread."
