So disappointed. Offense was so bad, Geno told Azzi to shoot every time she touched the ball.

It happens.

Gotta try and keep pace with Jordy

On a serious note she is talented and like Jordan has to carry a big offensive load right now

Stanford squeaks by Gonzaga 66-62.

Both Tennessee and UConn fans can feel a little better about their battles with USF. We’re all creeping closer to parity.

Connecticut is a beautiful state, you are just showing your ignorance now.

Spent a lot of time in Conn. on business.
The Merritt Parkway is absolutely stunning in the fall but the winters are gray, cold, sunless and endless. It can be miserable even in March.

Oh come now, even the Poles have plenty of sun in the winter, And it’s not endless, four seasons.

AP polls delayed tomorrow for the 1-2 matchup

The experience of slogging along sidewalks that had feet of snow piled up on them, in hose and heels back in the day, is burned forever in my memory. Brrrrrrr!!

[Volfan2012]

Picking SC to win today 72 to 69

 

[VolBall09]

I believe South Carolina will win as well. I’m calling it 77-64 SC. I’ve watched all 3 of UCONNs games. SC is going to crush them on the boards and will score at will at the rim.

They were out rebounded by USF yesterday and Mununga had 15 points as well. She only managed 6 playing against us.

 

[LadyVols_WBK]

Yikes

I just noticed Haley Jones wasn't in the box score. Is she hurt?

Shows the difference in trying to score/rebound against Key vs. ONO. There's really no comparison.

Unless Azzi and Paige both score 25-30, UConn will likely lose. Boston/Amihere/Cardoso/Saxton will make life miserable in the paint. Williams has been better from deep, but she likes to drive and SC will take that away from them. I'm hoping for a 10+ SC win.

Merritt is one of my favorite roads to drive on. It's like a F1 racetrack lol. Left lane crawlers and the random deer ruins it a bit, as does driving there in bad weather.

Pulling for South Florida to beat number 9 Oregon.

 

[Amb3096]

12-8 UConn halfway through the first half, with Evina about ready to finish a four point play and 9 points. UConn went on a 9-0 run after SC started the game with two quick 3s. UConn's defense look pretty good so far, but I think that it's just a matter before SC gets rolling.

The stone bridge overpasses are beautiful but u r right. The speed is fast and that is coming from someone who has had a speeding ticket or two
