A lot of nervous fans. I'm a little nervous too. We don't know what to expect. A lot of "ifs" from what I'm reading. If we get in foul trouble, if we play our best or if we don't play our best, if we don't play up to our level. Hey guys. We play defense. MD is not a good 3 pt shooting team. We will keep them on the outside. They will try to get inside. Our defense is too strong. Who will guard Thomas. We need to pack it it and keep her outside. We contained Chiney didn't we? We can contain Thomas too we did last season. I get the impression from some of you that you think we are going to struggle scoring and MD is going to put up a lot of points. Well first of all we are going to score, second we struggled against Stanford and Chong, and Kiah got us going as well as Bria. As far as MD scoring they struggled last season against our defense...twice. They will this season too. The biggest difference with MD this season is they're playing at home and most likely over confident with UConns injuries. We will be fine and if we lose hey we're down to 7 players and missing two of our stars. We lose now and hopefully gain some experience and hopefully MoTuck and KML come back 100% before year end. What matters right now is we get ready for the NCAAs.
IMO I think Geno spent a lot of time this week on teaching his team how to avoid fouls. The first team to learn how to adjust to the fouls called will win and could win by a lot. It has been very apparent to me that most teams didn't adjust. I think we will see UConn make adjustments to being called for fouls and that will be big.
