73-50 Uconn

1:47 to go

Elite 8 game

Poor Illinois and the Big 10


*Danny Hurley's son is in the game. He looks like he's 15 yrs old

No BVS for me but some team better play a perfect game to beat Connecticut good grief.

 

[Vols4us]

Four more outs. Go Vols!

 

[GoBigOrange86]

Connell pulled. Georgia has 2 outs, runners on 1st and 2nd.

UConn has more points in the paint (52) than Illinois does in total (50).

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

What a job by JJJ and company in the 2nd half on him overall. Only had 10 points in the 2nd half and 3 of those were an and-1 where two UT players went for the same rebound and the ball fell into Schiermans lap right in front of the hoop. They Locked him down. So impressive.

Yes...imo the job they did on Alexander was the difference in the game...they hounded him mercilessly..

I know Scheierman is a huge guy for that team..but imo Alexander is the guy that makes that team go...and we DESTROYED him from the opening minute until the last minute of the game when we basically let him shoot open 3s.

 

[Govolsman98]

They just crushed their will

Some might say they deliberately and systematically destroyed them on the basis of their basketball culture

 

[Govolsman98]

Well yeah...those are dunks and layups haha. Not high variance shots.

Fair. I thought you were comparing their off night to our against Texas. Because we struggled to make the easy shots

 

[Weezer]

Yeah, ESPN didn’t even have to use any brain power on that list.

Simply:
1. We love UConn
2. We also love the BIG10
3. Have to put the ACC next
4. Guess we have to include 2 SEC schools (Dang it! TN beat AL twice so we can’t put them last).

I'm surprised they didn't put Bama ahead of us. We know for a fact if it was football they would.

 

[Devo182]

Who in the world are the 3 teams that beat UConn, lol.

Clemson and Bama might as well play for tonight and then save what little honor they have left and head home.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Okay, watching uconn vs Illinois. I’m not so sure that uconn is unbeatable.
They are good. Illinois is not backing down.

I think the Vols can take them. If they get that far.

UConn accepted your challenge and won by 25.

But, I ain't skeert. WGWTFA!

Connecticut has 5 legitimate scoring options on court all the team, plus no real superstar.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

I especially like the loser that wishes they lost the previous game instead

Reminds of the "we should just not play our starters and rest them for a team we can compete with later" idiots.

 

[mr.checkerboards]

2 hours later. This didn't age well.

we need to try and copy what they are doing…. Clingan is just a sophomore as well.

Old timers look away

That’s because they out-ruled defense

 

[volbeast33]

 

[gordonr24]

Regardless of what happens tomorrow, I am so glad we’ve had this guy as our coach.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Who in the world are the 3 teams that beat UConn, lol.

We just laid one down to sleep in the early morning hours today.

 

[Glitch]

He wants it bad.
