Villanova post game thread

I just died a little inside.

 

[TheHorde]

Gritty! I love it

UConn explored literally every permutation and combination to try and lose, until they ran out of options and had to settle for the win.

 

[HailUConn]

A huge come-back win from 14 points down. Absolutely loved the dawgs in them. Diarra and Reed were huge in back2back key defense possessions that put Huskies up for good.
This game should put Reed vs Samson debate to rest.

Wow. I thought it was over … what a gritty comeback win. Huge. Ended it on a 29-6 run.

Person of the game for UConn: Kyle Neptune.

How did Villanova lose that game?

 

[UCFan1513]

They never give up.

Anyone see Neptune kind of blow past Hurley at the end? Wonder what that was about. Maybe he’s thinking about his future unemployment

 

[I Bleed Blue]

Relief. Needed that one. Nice bounce back win and 2nd half run.

 

[NewBlood]

More Reed please. Samson can be a spark plug off the bench.

 

[MJKI]

The Samson experiment is over. Reed needs to start every game. Him and Liam two man game was the story

 

[KingAG]

Big win

 

[Mister P]

No lack of toughness on Reed’s part during the second half, especially after hurting his ankle then limping back to stop Dixon.
After Reeds dunk, I think I heard a back to back U-C-O-N-N chant at the 1:02 timeout. Love it.

 

[StllH8L8ner]

Tough, gritty win and I’ll take it simply for the bragging rights over the Nova alums locally. Liam to Hoss is a nice combo.

Weak stripeout effort at XL but that’s no surprise.

 

[Huskyforlife]

Gut check, they finally locked in before it was too late. Liam and Tarris are studs.

 

[Mets1432]

A sigh of relief. Pheeeew.

This team never makes it easy but solid win.

 

[TedStriker]

I like winning. It’s like better than losing. They should do more of the winning.

 

[Scoe]

Hartford has been clutch for us.

 

[NC_Uconn_Fan]

Kind of saved the season.

 

[Gutter King]

This team continues to befuddle. New game, still have no idea who we are. But our in your face defense in the last ten minutes made the whole thing come alive.

Tarris with defense and manchild like offensive performance.

Solo with 6 ast, and they were mostly the savvy type that required awareness. Bring more of that!

They dug this one out, in what would have been a season ender. Phew!

 

[I Bleed Blue]

The Fox commentators don’t know what to make of this team lmao. Crazy ups and downs. Welcome to club guys

 

[husky8273]

wasn't AK sitting for a good portion of our run?

 

[blkknight1]

The game turned when they stopped playing novas game and started making nova play UConn’s game.

Thats what they need to do from the onset. Stop letting teams dictate to them and start dictating.

 

[superjohn]

Season was on the line and Tarris and Liam said we're not going out like this.

Earth to Danny, you have Tarris Reed on your team and he's really big, really good at scoring down low, and really good at rebounding.

 

[SaeHusky]

Reed needs to start going forward. Hurley will do that right ?

 

[uconntoatl]

This is essentially a six man rotation at this point. Ross and Mahaney should not see any more floor time this year.

 

[Dove]

FEED REED!!!!

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Diarra was HUGE down the stretch with those stops.

Excellent carrying this momentum for the rest of the week before MSG. I’ll be there!

 

[Jaydumo20]

Not impressed with that win, but i am impressed with how happy I am compared to a few hours ago

 

[Chin Diesel]

I bet that chat room was a blast the first 30 minutes of this game.

The game turned when Reed went into the game and we had a beast in the low post
