Let’s see now... first quarter, the Huskies crushed UL.  Only a fool would dispute that.  The UConn lead at half was an increase of two points compared to the end of the first quarter.  So, quarter #2 is either a UConn win, or it’s a near-draw if you want to see it that way.  But the third period ends with Louisville outscoring UConn by three.  This again, is either a UL win or a near-draw.  If one thinks that UL won period three, then fairness dictates that UConn won period two.  UL wins period four, in a way.

So, what do we have?  First, we have a UConn win.  This is good.  Beyond that though:

Either UConn wins two quarters and loses two,

-or-

UConn wins one, loses one and draws two.

There is NO scenario available that yields UL winning any three quarters.  If I recall correctly,  with about :49 to go in the third quarter, the lead was 22 points.  Hard to call that a UL “win.”   Even with 6:16 to go in the fourth, the lead was still 16.  UL’s “win” in the fourth quarter was closer to a “half a win of a single quarter.”  Three UL quarters? Sheer drivel and propaganda.
