Message: [QUOTE="BroadwayVa, post: 3386866, member: 6118"] i agree Mak (Ania) and Aubrey (Griffin) need to be all they can be and not rely on the Core 4. But you forget that Aubrey had 2 great game scoring over 20 in one and over 15 in another. Then too in the W.St game Ania made a couple or 3 lays ups and a put back while rebounding well, not great but well. If Uconn is to beat Baylor with bigs and one or 2 that drill the 3 we must keep in mind Baylor can play WCBB too. They defend, maybe not Genos defense, they score, maybe not from 5 positions but well. The singular issue in any game against those you mention is: Allowing ANY team to get a 10 or 12 point lead in the first quarter and certainly to not allow themselves to back off on defense or scoring, as they have: I call them lapses. The key---while true ONO can't foul out but [USER=73]@Tonyc[/USER] which one or 2 of the starting 5 can Uconn afford to have foul out???? No ONE. Fouls and injuries have been the bane of Uconn for the past 4 years or so and it won't change until next year. (hopefully) Teams play Uconn to get them in foul trouble---if you can't beat them with Talent let them beat themselves by making fouls. When Uconn has 2 on the bench with fouls of the starting 7 who do they go to??? [/QUOTE]
