The announcers' drooling over UConn is about par for the course for ESPN. And it would really be nice if the refs would be consistent too. Those garbage fouls on Indiana in the the 3Q were just ridiculous when they didn't call basically the same things on UConn.

Oh, you mean Paige Bueckers isn't the only starter to have undergone a midseason knee surgery? Wouldn't know it from listening to this broadcast.

He went small this game. Which was the correct choice. One of UConnâs post could out rebound Indians, and UConn needs the space on offense.
Again, second half UConnâs offense ran much better through the guards. We need to give up trying to run offense through the post players unless they get something easy.
Paige Bueckers looked like the best player on the floor today. That is a good sign.

I don't see Gabriel on the bench. Anyone know why?

I think she missed a couple of bunnies. That would make me lose some trust too.

UConn's 1Q defense sucked. Indy shot 56%. That won't cut it. |
Not to be crappy, but is there a reason people refer to IU as Indy? I've seen others use it and it has always puzzled me.

Good second half for UConn. Since I'm never satisfied, I now wish Azzi Fudd could drive and assist, both of which she rarely does, half as well as Olivia Miles. It would add so much to UConn's offense. |

This game illustrates another reason why there should not be a âBridgeportâ regional.

Azzi looks like a Freshman in every area besides shooting and defense. But That shootingâŚ

So because I'm an Iowa fan and ESPN never shuts up about Clark, that means I'm not aloud to comment on ESPN's other biases? Your point is 1000% true about Clark, and I'm not here defending how ESPN slobbers her. So I'm not sure why you're bringing it up because it's not even relevant to my point.
The best players for UConn and Indiana were each sidelined for a significant portion of the season due to a knee injury, and unless I missed it, they didn't even mention it in Holmes's case. That's poor broadcasting and disrespectful to Indiana and to the casual viewers tuning in to watch the game.

The result of the game was pretty much what I expected. UConn is the more talented team. IU is "B10" good. I like how they play, and they've been around a looong time.
Man that 4th quarter was rough to sit through in person...it must have sucked on tv.
Survive and advance...Monday should be interesting. I really don't know what to expect.

And guess what, no matter where the most popular teams go, their fans will follow. The difference wonât be in who the crowd favors, but rather in crowd size. |
Then put SC in Bridgeport and UConn in Greenville. If the fans follow, the arenas should be full. Problem solved.

UConn's defense held Indiana a dozen or so pts under their average.

Again, until wcbb is popular enough to where regionals can be anywhere and people will go, this is what is going to happen.
And Iâd be willing to bet that opposing teams prefer a full stadium of fans rooting against them instead of a half of a stadium.
But itâs nice to see that yâall have your excuses for UConnâs success đ
