Message: [QUOTE="EricLA, post: 3029115, member: 26"] The 4 worst teams in the league are USF, SMU, Wichita State and ECU, and there's not much that separates those 4 teams. UCONN beat USF by 17 but pounded SMU almost as badly as ECU. But if you want to take USF out of the mix, against SMU the team scored 8 points in the 4th quarter, the bench scored 5 points going 2-10 and ONO/Irwin had 0 points and 3 boards combined in 25 total minutes. I'd say the bench was MUCH better against ECU. We don't play WSU until 2/26... Last thing to add, and I feel this is important - the UCONN bench has NEVER played significant minutes in a big game going back 25 years. For those who lament that, go back and look at the PT in big games for Hansmeyer, Rigby, Ash Valley,Tahira Williams, Kerns, Fernandez, Dixon, Buck, Engeln, Ekmark, and now Irwin and Bent. [/QUOTE]
