ND wins 92-76

Does that score ring any bells?

 

[Phil]

Yes


We lost to ND by that score in 2001

Bingo! I believe it fell in calendar 2000 but yes it was the 2000-01 season. Freaked me out a bit when I saw the score.

Figures that you would remember Phil!

You guys impress the heck out of me when you remember stuff like that.

Wow, you didn't even need to look it up?
I watched a bit of the game. Taya R. is going to be really good I think.

If you are referencing the regular season game that was on MLK Day.. and would have been January of 2001...

I had to look it up to confirm.

How did Lindsay Allen look? Going by the numbers she seems to be awfully good as well. If Turner is as good as advertised, ND is going to be tremendous in a couple of years.

Allen had 13, as a starter (played 34 mins). Reimer had 15 off the bench, and Mabrey 8 from the bench, another freshie worth watching.

Thanks for the compliment, but I can't remember what I had for dinner last night. I had to look it up.

What's amazing to me is a couple of things. One is that we had a significant half time lead and then lose by 16 points and the second is that a UConn team allowed 92 points and the game didn't even go to overtime. When do you remember a UConn team allowing that many points. I am in shock when UConn allows more than 60 points with the exception of the type game that we played earlier where we scored well over a 100 points in a run and gun show where we won by 50 points. How many UConn teams can you recall that allowed over 90 points in a game since our first championship in 1995??????

Notre Dame may have lost Diggins, but they may turn out to be more of a team. They don't always have to look to her. Spread the wealth works better, as UConn is proving and has proven.

Mabrey is a sophomore.

I think you are conflating two games. We had a 12 point lead at halftime of the NCAA Tournament semifinal, (if my imperfect memory serves me), not ably was 15, then gave up a last second 3, and went on to lose, in the game that DT would like to forget.

However, the 92-76 game was a regular season game, the first won by ND following nine straight losses, but a game in which UConn never led.

Thanks, Doggy.
