UConn v.Buffalo Women

[KhalidShockedTheWorld]

This is hard to explain but 5Dimes has the line as UConn -24.5 while SportsBet has it as UConn -7. I have never seen such a large disparity in lines between 2 websites. If we average the lines, it comes out to UConn -15.75.

I think UConn gave up 18 offensive boards in that first half. Buffalo outrebounded UConn 28-18 overall. Rebounding is a significant issue- if they get beaten it will be by a team who beats them on the glass. They are really lacking big girls to clean glass and clog lane and have to figure out some way to hide this weakness.

Rebounding still an issue.

Walker annoys me. She’s too nonchalant/sloppy. Someone show her Draymond Green or Dennis Rodman videos. Hell, just show her Pheesa’s film.

 

[KhalidShockedTheWorld]

Dangerfield on the bench with 4 fouls. UConn now prone to being pressed. Williams playing point guard.

Meg keeps shooting that line drive short. Sit her down and put Coombs in for a few minutes coach.

 

[KhalidShockedTheWorld]

Walker is having a bad shooting night but they can’t take her out because she and Collier are needed on the boards.

That was a somewhat nerve wracking win! I think all the games from this point on will be nerve wracking.

Do you realize that UConn may have to beat Louisville, ND and Baylor in consecutive games to win the national championship? That's assuming they beat winner of Maryland/UCLA in the next game.

 

[CaNOLEE]

it’s certainly no cake walk. Hopefully one/two of those teams get picked off first and we handle our business.

Buffalo out scored us 72-69 after we opened the game 15-0. If 3 of our starters go 10-35 again(Walker/CD and KLS), we are probably going home at this point.
