| UConn ahead 15-10 at Q1 in a game characterized by poor shooting and too many TOs by both teams. |

Could we borrow the girl that keep blocking Aaliyah for the tournament?
Paige is having a Diana type game…with the refs.

35-24 at the half. Same comments as for Q1 plus too many fouls by both teams. Miss, whistle, turnover, miss, whistle . . . etc. . . offenses.
Paint Bueckers playing the 5 well. No sign of Brady in the half even though Edwards was clearly getting tired. |

47-35 late in the 3rd.
This game became a mess when the refs put 2 Vill players on the bench right at the start with 2 fouls. They may have set the record for most fouls called away from the ball tonight.
Vill. is the 50th best team in the country, (Massey/NET) I counted 5 SEC teams lower in the rankings. They struggle to score but they scrap well.
But UConn has Bueckers.

| Nova closes within 7. UConn has no team offense. Just try to toss it into Edwards or watch Bueckers create. This adumbrates a lugubrious future for UConn with one regular season game to go. |

The reason is mediocre 3pt shooting. Bueckers isn't hitting 3's but I'm not worried that that will last long. I'm happy to trade a slump now for peak play in March/April.
As I type Shade nails a 3 and UConn leads by 13 while the blood pressure subsides on Husky Nation.

| Good to see my unnecessary vocabulary immediately woke UConn up a little. |

67-43 final but far from a blowout and will win no beauty contests.
Bueckers with 31 on 15 shots the lone exception.

4 years in and Bueckers still doesn't get it. An alpha she is not.
Geno, in his halftime on-court spot, and in the 3rd qtr after he called a time out and greeted his team with "wtf was that?!", continues to mirror my in real-time game thoughts. It's uncanny.
(btw, i hate the phrase "in real-time")

what do you mean by your first statement? 11-15 FG for 31 points with 1 solid confidant... are you implying shoot more/be more aggressive/be like CC?
