Interesting poll results for this one. I didn't expect 50/50. I know that's what the seeding suggest, but still thought that more people would go for UConn.

I think it's a combination of people wanting UConn to lose and UConn looking relatively vulnerable against UCF.

My keyboard is not going to love Mühl versus Cardaño-Hillary, but the histrionics will be amazing.

I don’t know why we try so hard to pass the ball into the post. If we want them to score so badly, put Caroline or Evina in at the four.

UConn's 1Q defense sucked. Indy shot 56%. That won't cut it.

See..Caroline at the 4 fixes our “posts players can’t make layups” issue.

Also, UConn simply looks better with Muhl on the floor than it does without her. Can’t tell you why that’s true on offense, but it is.

well Edwards definitely got away with two fouls on the same possession. Resulting in the Fudd three. Huge no calls.

How can post players consistently miss uncontested layups and even the rim? Mind boggling! Thank goodness for Azzi and Caroline.

I really hope we see a lot more of that Caroline/Aaliyah front court.

I wonder why Gulbe took that extra step with so little time left. Must have been her spot.

37-33 UConn at the half.

UConn defense is still not good enough. A team can't give up 50% shooting at this level of competition.

I think the defense has been better than that number suggests, UConn has caused a lot of turnovers. Although, I would still say this was a C game for UConn on defense.

I only started watching with about 5 minutes left in the third, and see that Indiana's shooting percentages are definitely higher than we'd like. On the other hand, only giving up 15 points on average a quarter is a recipe for success (except, perhaps, against South Carolina).

I haven't seen a lot of UConn games this year, but this is the best I've seen them play.

3Q was a lot better for UConn but they lost focus in the final 3 minutes. They better snap back into focus for the long 4Q.

Too bad Holmes isn't back to her pre-injury self either.

They need a "foul challenge". One per half per team.

I hope Moren has some good guards coming in next year. They will miss C-Hilary and Patberg (it truly is her final year I presume). Has Berger said if she will come back for her covid year?

Geno appears to have lost trust in Juhasz.

And we're shooting terribly from 3 and the free throw line Mad

The ticky tack fouls in the 3rd quarter were a bit much, but at least they were relatively consistent. Offensive rebounding has been huge.
