If Jefferson continues to play this poorly SF will have a chance. Not sure what she's doing today.
 
UConn has gotten virtually nothing out of Nurse, Jefferson, Collier, and Samuelson.
 
UConn's starting backcourt is 1-9 from the floor and Jefferson is playing like she has somewhere else to be. Throw in KLS and the UConn guards are 2-14.

USF has only 28 points, and that's after a 3 point barrage early. The Huskies are getting good shots but those are hitting the front or back of the rim. They need to settle down and shoot in rhythm.

Agreed. Not sure what it is about USF that seems to unhinge UCONN and they play uncharacteristic. I want to say it's because USF is so good, but they constantly stay ranked in the 20-25 range with mystifying losses. Yet against UCONN they look like a FF team...

Nan; could you post the url for the gametracker? I can't find the damn thing.

They are well-coached and get up for UConn. Not that big of a mystery.

Doesn't mean UConn has to take such poor shots and make such bad decisions. Let SF play their hair is on fire; no reason to join them in that frenzy.

USF is a good shooting team and they take, and make, good shots. This year they have Laksa, previously there was another foreign player that hit 3s at a ridiculous pace. As Peck has said (ad nauseum) you need to make shots to have a chance to beat UConn. Usually the Huskies can fluster teams into rushed shots but the Bulls are well coached and don't fluster.

Well, I guess there's still Stewart, Tuck, Williams & Chong

Chong hasn't played yet. Neither has Butler or Ekmark. Doesn't look like Geno has confidence in them in big games.
 
I've only seen USF a half-dozen times or so, but it seems that Ferreira takes enough quick (or bad) shots to keep any opponent around. There must be something about her that I'm failing to credit. She gets a lot of minutes.

I was amused at the game opening when a USF player was said to be from "Lisbon, Spain."

Not at full speed for her and her lateral movement is still not fully back to her ususal blinding speed.

I don't see it. She missed one game that she would've played had the game been important. And that game was 5 days ago.
 
Another sh&tty half of basketball by this team coming off the Houston Game. What's with the love of the 3 point shot instead of running offense. KLS should not be guarding Courtney as frequently as she did in the 1st half. I'd rather see Geno go with his bigs of Stewart, Morgan and Butler to go with Moriah and Ki at guard. Get the ball to the low post and score easy baskets.
 
Why no Chong? Can't be that Geno has "no confidence" in her as she has played terrific lately and can't be any worse than Jefferson has been in the 1st half...
