In my predictions a few weeks back, I tabbed this one as a win, WSU as a loss. So far I haven’t been wrong through two games, so let’s hope that continues here.

What I find most disturbing about this team is their inability to play a complete game. Saw some offensive bright spots against Syracuse, and they couldn’t guard a chair, or rebound. Against Arizona, they played solid D for 35 minutes, and rebounded pretty well, but the offense was inept for most of the game until Larrier showed something in the second half. They are due to have a good game on both ends for a change.

Mark it down.
Auburn hasn't played a very good non-conference schedule, we are the marque game on their non-conf schedule.....they beat Mid Ten & Winthrop & lost to Temple. I think it's a big ask for UConn to win this game but it's winnable for sure.....opportunities are dwindling & a non-conf top 40 road win would be huge if they can muster 40 minutes of solid ball.

It was 7-7 when Adams got his second foul. Ollie takes him out for Polley.

Game over.

Well that guy yelling thru the announcer’s mikes told him to. He made it unwatchable for me.

Ollie waited for 16-0, run to call a time out. Why not do that at 8-0, or 10-0? Did he purposefully want the game to be out of reach before he used his timeouts?

My favorite by far are the turnovers right out of timeouts. Nothing screams coaching like that.

To be fair, Ollie's teams prior to this season had generally been very good coming out of timeouts. Maybe that was Miller's doing? Dude could draw up a play.

But yeah, this team is not well coached. KO is in over his head.

That's what astounds me. He had in-bounds plays and plays out of timeouts. Now, nothing.

And the defense, well, I have no words. Simply unacceptable.

I was wrong.
That's ok. You were rallying the troops for a game we all knew we needed a W. It didn't happen. UConn is not good. You are not to blame.

Not that you were blaming yourself 8893. My bad.

Rome is burning and we are joking around. Do you think Herbst and the AD are talking today?
