No chat room Saturday for you, family time.Any excuse to see my son and go to a UConn game together like we have since he was about 3 months old - just missing Dad.

I don’t know… I I watched Marquette dominate Villanova and they sure weren’t staying on the ground with arms straight up on defense.Anyone have the over/under on how many times our defenders don’t stay on the ground after being backed down, ball fake and it turns into a foul or a step by and lay in?
The teams that have given trouble to nova on the defensive end have stayed on the ground arms straight up then ready to go get the rebound. I hope they are working on that like crazy the rest of the week. Good chance we will see Samson and Sool if not.
They need their second win and fast. They looked tired Tuesday night. Last game the bench gave us squat. Of course the bench didn't play much. Ville lost last night. They will be hard charging against our boys at their house. Gillespie will get Sonogo in foul trouble. Unless he is nailing threes from way downtown.I just don't have such confidence right now. But the one thing they have going for them, they're consistently inconsistent
So there's hope

They lost to Providence in the final regular season game last year and Georgetown in the opening round of the Big East tournamentWhen was the last time Nova lost back to back conference games? With the games we have coming up it would have been real nice to win the other night. Not saying it’s impossible buttttt
There is and they are. In the 2 minutes of looking at the comments, it's like reading this board after a loss.Great. We get Nova off a loss. I wonder if there's a Nova board out there losing their collective mind like we do here after a loss.
It seems like the good teams we play always find a way to dictate the style of play and UConn tries to match that rather than dictate pace or style. We won't impose our will until we take a proactive approach rather than a reactive one.It’s time to show we can finally win a game as an underdog. It comes down to coaching adjustments and imposing our will on them. Not the other way around. Does the team on the court cut out the sloppy play and mental mistakes or do we continue the same pattern. Nova is a very disciplined and coached team. They’re going to get mismatches, constant movement, and they’re going to draw fouls.
They're going to be 13/22 from 3 now because you said that. ThanksVillanova goes on crazy cold spurts like us. Could be a serious brick fest on Saturday.
Yeah without Gillespie lolThey lost to Providence in the final regular season game last year and Georgetown in the opening round of the Big East tournament
Seems like every time Sanogo should have a good matchup, Hurley takes him out to go small with the other team. He always lets the better teams dictate the game against usThe Sanogo matchup could help. They'll have to double him pretty hard. Otherwise he'll abuse their center.
That one loss put our backs against the wall pretty hard. Looking forward to seeing our response.
That really is the problem with this team. We lack shooting touch from top to bottom and we have no isolation scorers.Yeah they are the best in the big east with Providence and they have go to player when they need a bucket in Justin Lewis. This can't be overstated because our team doesn't have anyone even close to that.
Sure, if we want to start adding caveats then we'd have to go all the way back to the year before when they lost 3 straight to Creighton, Butler, Seton HallYeah without Gillespie lol
UConn viewing Nova as the boogeyman is a disgusting development. I hate it for our once proud programSure, if we want to start adding caveats then we'd have to go all the way back to the year before when they lost 3 straight to Creighton, Butler, Seton Hall
This is not the same Marquette team they were earlier in the season.This Marquette team is growing by the day. WOW.
Of course it’s not because we beat them.This is not the same Marquette team they were earlier in the season.
