I figured I'd get it started early. I'm playing ball today at 3, but I'll be more excited for this game. I'm so pumped I can't even wait. And this is the first time I'll be able to see a Husky game at school this season.
Hopefully Britt Hunter is suiting up and ready to go... a quality 15 minutes from her would be very nice.

The team will have to focus on the game and not on the players they have lost for the season!!

We're toast, Hunter is a no-go.

Before Kalana and Mel got hurt, this was an easy pick IMO. However, now, I'm not so sure.
Geno Auriemma boldly stated on his TV show that "UConn will win".

I wouldn't be surprised to see Hunter listed in the starting lineups in a few minutes... this is vintage Geno. I could see him trying to throw Hatchell off by having Hunter ready to go tonight.

UNC is just trouncing UConn's frontcourt. Breland/Larkins/Pringle are pretty much scoring at will.
Montgomery keeping UConn in it.
Despite the t/o's, its been really fun basketball to watch.

... The music is so loud! Is it supposed to be like that? That we can't hear whatever Jim Calhoun is trying to say? |

Wow. Tina Charles is really, really thin. UCONN is having a lot of trouble with UNC's defense although it doesn't help that a lot of these chip shots are being missed. |

Maya Moore is awesome. O_O She's doing a lot of things and finishing -- which seems to be a problem atm. |

Guess I don't get why they go after Claytor on defense. She looks like she'd be perfect fodder for an And 1 mix tape.
Getting rid of Latta has put the focus on their perpetually scary frontcourt. As long as DeGraff + Lucas keep on deferring to those forwards, UNC should be decent.

Some random thoughts:
I am really enjoying this game.
It's sponsored bu Mucinex... that's kind of funny.
Lobo interviewing Geno...he isn't happy.

Bart, I said that before Kaili got called for a few questionable fouls and before Tina finally WOKE THE F UP. Hopefully we can just ride Tina out to a victory.
Oh, and lets just leave Spinderella -- I mean Charde on the bench. Completely useless. She had an open j but then started whirling and twirling down the lane for no reason at all.

I still think UNC will give UConn the chance to win this game due to the lack of discipline.
Tina Charles is solid but seems so soft-spoken.

Kaili had 3 fouls, not the 2 that she was listed with, that's why she came out of the game. |
and Larkins should only have 1. that second offensive call was bogus.
