I only saw bits and pieces. My God, how bad was Cincinnati? Stop bitching about how bad UConn was and tell me just how bad Cincinnati was.

How does Cincinnati rank against the fourth best teams in the P5 conferences?

Bigger question, how did this game prepare UConn for what they will face in the NCAA's? It didn't.

[linkster]

Some perspective

1st period scores

UConn 17 Cinci 5
UConn 26 Louis 6
UConn 26 Stan 10


It isn't just the AAC teams

Where is the conference that will give UConn close competitive games more than once or twice a season?

opponent & MOV

Stanford 25
Cal 25
Maryland 25
UCLA 18
N Dame 9 (4th period UConn 26 N Dame 9)
DePaul 34 (yeah, let's rejoin the BE)
Okl 24
Texas 4 - the exception that proves the rule?
S Carolina 25
Louis 11 - 42-22 at the half

There is no difference if UConn played Texas and Baylor, for example, home and away, or playing USF and UCF home and away.

Any fucking idiot can see that.

Miss St and South Carolina- same thing.

Any fucking idiot can see that.

There is NO difference between UConn playing in the mid-major AAC or in any P5 conf.

Any fucking idiot can see that.

This fucking idiot can't quite see that. USF and UCF are hugely worse than any of the top two teams in the P5s. [Well maybe except the B10 this year.] And the middle of the conferences are even more hugely better than the middle of the AAC. Of course UConn would still dominate, but at least they wouldn't have to play such a ridiculously hard OOC schedule to make sure they had even the remotest chance of meeting a team that could compete with them.

But I don't see the point of the debate since it ain't gonna happen around women's bball. So it is what it is and Geno makes the best of it.

Forget UConn. Can someone please put the Jamelle Elloitt era out of its misery at Cincinnati. There is not caring about women's basketball, and there is keeping this going for nine freaking seasons.

Uconn never lost a big east game either.

The challenge of conference play isn't the individual matchup, it's the grind. Playing a team that is somewhat decent every weekend for two straight months. Not being able to work on your overall team fundamentals because you needed to spend time in every practice with someone playing the part of the opponent's star player. And, most importantly, not being able to rest your starters much in the latter half of the season even if they are nursing injuries. What UConn has right now is that they are able to space out their high caliber opponents throughout the entire season. They play the bulk of their hard games early when they are fresh. In the last three months, however, Texas, South Carolina and Louisville were their only competitive games. Only Kia Nurse averages more than 28 minutes per game. Meanwhile, South Carolina's conference schedule saw 4 players at 30+. The competition have all just gone through a 3 or 4 game weekend of contact and huge minutes. Uconn, meanwhile, had no player with more than 28 minutes tonight.
