UConn vs Miami Final Four

[Magic32]

The only team out of top 16 seeds to make Final Four U C O N N.
Has there ever been a Final Four without a single 1, 2 or 3 seed?

 

[Mister P]

We fear no one

 

[Khal Drogo]

They have no height. DC should be unstoppable

We will did you see the size of their Center? Sanogo won't be able to bully him.

Dude their center is like 6’6, he’s good, but take a deep breath. Both our centers lap him easily.

 

[EastConn'er]

Sanogo will eat Miami up inside and Clingan will be tough to drive on. We've got some big guards to counter theirs. Even if Hawk and Newt struggle to score, Alleyne and/or JoeyC have stepped up when that happens. AJax will be put on whomever it hot. AK needs to play decent D and bang down a few 3's! We have good balance at the right time. If someone isn't playing great we have some good back up options. Feeling good!

Yea but that’s the only center they have. We have two. Sanogo footwork is much better that his. I’m not worried. They need to keep him out of foul trouble.

Their guards are tough but Newton and just as big and strong as Wong. Pack has to chase Hawk around. Both great shooters.

They have no bench. They have a better coach, I like Hurley but this dude is a very good coach.

Anybody can beat anybody, that’s what makes March awesome, but the amount of pantywetting I’m seeing after Miami’s win is downright incredible, given that 24 hours haven’t even gone by since we beat the best offensive team in the country by 7,000 points.

If you “don’t like matchup,” I don’t like the cut of your jib.

Have root for Miami women to lose. My late wife always made a big deal about rooting against schools that had both their men and women's teams advancing in the tourneys. She wanted UConn to remain the only school that had the men and women win in the same year. I don't usually watch women's basketball other than UConn, but I must carry the torch. Lol

Just saw a Guardian headline saying it's the first time it's ever happened.

 

[Huskyforlife]

this is what we didn't want to deal with in Houston

It’s a meme.

The Miami team gave me strong 2014 uconn vibes. W
Jordan and Tristan are going to have to guard up or they’ll end up the Harrison twins

What? Satirical tweets from Ohio State fans?

 

[Jaker]

We have ClingKong and they don't!

Except they have to chase Hawk around on D, Harrison Twins we’re wildly overrated.

yeah my bad. couldn't delete in time.

People claiming theyd have preferred playing the big12 tourney champs in their home state is surprising, to say the least. Would we have preferred playing Houston at home too? I don’t think so. Thank you Miami for knocking both out for us.

Actually a horrible matchup as they have the guards to cause us issues with penetration and they can shoot outside. They also have a center who can neutralize Sanogo. The one thing that we have going for us is that Miami does go through lulls and we are a team who takes advantage of that. We need to do better than Texas and pull away from them when that happens.

 

[DaMuttzNutt]

We need to avenge one of our worst losses when they beat us back I think in 2003 when they stole an inbound pass to win the game when we clearly had the game one. A loss that still stings.

Darius Rice game?

What a bunch of wussy boys. We're going to have to beat someone good, it's the final 4 but we're better than them.

Everyone was terrified of having to play Texas in Texas with Disu coming back, they turned on a dime and now Miami is the big bad scary team UConn needs to be scared of.

That's very true.

 

[Tex-Lager93]

Preferred to having to face Texas, in Texas. Can’t wait.

Going to need him on defense a lot more than we have of late
