I would expect the team to run players for anybody other then our Core 4. Irwin Makurat and Griffin need to score and combined imo they need to contribute on the offensive end 12 pts. The foul shooting and layups will take care of themselves. Im hoping we dont get any southern cooking from the refs. Im expected a much better showing then the Cal game. When everything comes together UConn should be scoring alot of points. What I saw was some rushed shots, and playing out of sync...ala lack of poise. We need to slow it down and execute and not so much one on one. This is a game imo we should win by 15+ easily and 25+ would be very good. 25+ would show us we have arrived. As fans we are not used to this. We are used to 40 pt blowouts. That could happen once we get a few games under our belt and convert foul shots, layups, and other then our core 4..that 5th postion scores 12+ pts a game. Against Cal our Core 4 scored 70 of the 72 pts. That needs to change tonite and thats why I feel Geno will run a couple of plays to get our 5th postion players going.
