I believe Dawn's strategy was correct to limit UConn's possessions at the start of the game.  However,  like Coach P (Duke) in the prior game, it appears they didn't deviate/change that strategy during any part of the game.  If I'm Dawn at the start of the 2nd quarter or the latest the start of the 3rd quarter, the score dictates, I need to ry something else.  My first change is start to apply pressure on the UConn player bringing up the ball.  Sure, So Carolina doesn't have an  abundance of guards, but neither does UConn.  If you can't pressure the ball on every possession, then how about every 2nd or 3rd possession. So Carolina had to find a way to disrupt UConn's offense.  Then I would go to an uptempo offense to see if we can cut into the lead.   If you're unable to, or that giving UConn more opportunities and they are succeeding then go back to the Slowed Pace.  Do Something.  By doing nothing, So Carolina was guaranteed to lose. The only question was by how much.
