UConn vs. USF — Game Thread

[Zorro]

Does anyone know a site for instant stats, other than espn gamecast?

 

[BigBird]

Wow. Geno likes his defense, and I won’t argue. Maybe the best half of the year?

 

[oldude]

Si! I left 4 degrees at Washington Dulles and landed at 74 degrees in Los Cabos.

I hate you

 

[MilfordHusky]

A slower quarter, but I'm ok with 20-9, especially since we led by 22 to start the quarter.

The 0-7 stretch knocked our shooting down to 54%.

 

[Roger G]

UConn's defense has been nothing short of awesome

 

[hoophuskee]

UCONN has a big problem they have to address for the future. How the hell did USF score 20 points?
Work on it.

 

[msf22b]

The 1st quarter was as classic as any

 

[HoopsFan21]

The last basket of the half not counted Only 51-20 at the half.

 

[BigBird]

 

[JordyG]

Well Jose has to feel some relief. The last time they met it was UConn 62-23 at the half. Of course, no Lou for the 2nd period will do that.

 

[oldude]

Obviously those balmy 59 degree temperatures today in Tampa suit the Huskies well

 

[JordyG]

USF a step too slow all over the court

And a bit too small on the wing and interior. Just like last year.

 

[Carnac]

If you are Jose Fernandez what do you tell your team at half time when you're down 31 points and you're getting run out of the arena?

 

[Sluconn Husky]

As was the case last year, UConn a horrible matchup for USF. The Bulls don't have enough athletes to compete. Now next year UConn won't have Williams and Nurse to put on this spectacular defensive show.

 

[BigBird]

Ever wondered what it must feel like to listen to the inspirational halftime speech when you’re down thirty?

 

[DefenseBB]

Well Jose has to feel some relief. The last time they met it was UConn 62-23 at the half. Of course, not Lou for the 2nd period will do that.

Maybe he needs to get a few more "Euro's" to help close the gap...

 

[MilfordHusky]

I hate you

I'm not as dumb as I look.

 

[oldude]

Yes. UConn is a terrible matchup for USF....Not a very good matchup for everyone else either....but really, really terrible for USF.

 

[JordyG]

A few more Euro's to pay off Geno and the team to tank.

 

[MilfordHusky]

The last basket of the half not counted Only 51-20 at the half.

Booo!

 

[Carnac]

There was so much fast paced action in the first quarter, I had to put my seatbelt on, and I'm sitting in my living room.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Booo!

I was surprised it wasn't waved off because you could see the ball still in Collier's hands when the basket on the opposite end was already lit up. Figured it would be reviewed at half time, and it was and the refs got it right.

Nah. Just an improved CD and Meg with CW and ONO thrown in for good measure. Of course, Jesperson Flores, and Ferreira won't be there either.

 

[MilfordHusky]

I like the 16:2 A:TO ratio.

 

[Papa33]

According to ESPN, Uconn has only 51 points; Collier's last shot not scored. ???

 

[Roger G]

If you are Jose Fernandez what do you tell your team at half time when you're down 31 points and you're getting run out of the arena?

I think you have to Bull****.

 

[HoopsFan21]

Collier for 3!!! 54-20 9:22 3rd

 

[oldude]

Wow. 3 UConn players pass up a shot on the 1sst possession until Pheesa knocks down an open 3. Beautiful

 

[Sluconn Husky]

Nah. Just an improved CD and Meg with CW and ONO thrown in for good measure. Of course, Jesperson Flores, and Ferreira won't be there either.

Sure, but there's a huge dropoff defensively from Williams/Nurse to Walker/Stevens.

 

[HoopsFan21]

KLS for 3!!!! 58-20 8:23 3rd
