by the quacks....Pains me to say it but they are damn good...Unless we meet them in the NCAA tourney, the will with it all. Agreed... except with the last two parts. OSU isn't beating the ucks unless they lay a complete egg. And, I'm unsure of their sure fire NC. NCAA is all about matchups. As I've stated with past results, the WBB tourney is extremely top heavy. I'd bet 99.9% they are an E8 team... 85% F4. But, there are some very good, deeper teams. A bad matchup could spoil their party. And, for what it's worth. The 4th time watching part of a UConn game. Their ranking is based completely on their past. This isn't a typical UConn team, nor the 4th ranked team in the Pac12 let alone the country! |

This UCONN team is nowhere near previous years. Boat raced at home by Baylor and now uo.

It could've been a lot worse. Ducks missed a bunch of easy shots and were 6-20 behind the arc, Ionescu didn't really get going scoring. They dominated in the paint though, and Moore had a pretty good game. Boley was on fire early and then completely disappeared. I think Oregon's defense is WAY better than any UConn fan was giving them credit for before the game. UO regularly faces better teams in the Pac 12.
Williams and Walker from UConn were no shows again. Has happened against Baylor, Tennessee and now Oregon. Those 2 are way overrated.

Worst loss at Gambel arena ever by U-Conn team. First loss at home since January of 2016. Baylor game was not on campus.

I enjoyed watching Geno’s team get hammered immensely. I just ignored the team doing the beat down to maximize the enjoyment.

I also enjoyed watching UCONN getting dominated AT Gampel arena. There are so many UCONN fans that live in the past, and think UCONN was going to win this game. If UCONN had to play in the PAC-12, UCONN would've been a #3 seed on the reveal today.

Who was the poster that had a quote about Geno being a “pus-bucket” in his signature? Whoever he is/was is gotta be loving this result.

Now they are living in the future, they are going to win 4 Championships in a row as soon as Bueckers shows up. |

Tonight, I was a duck fan. Yeah, it is a lesser of two evils, but Geno is something else. I will say something positive about Geno though. This year he is taking on Baylor, Oregon, and South Carolina. That is a fierce OOC.

"OSU isn't beating the ucks unless they lay a complete egg. " Sooo, if the Beav's win at the Pac-12 tourney or the Nat. tournament it's all luck? How nice.

Williams and Walker from UConn were no shows again. Has happened against Baylor, Tennessee and now Oregon. Those 2 are way overrated. The Boneyarders were implying they were All Americans early on. Walker because she had a good first half of a season. Things tend to even out over time and it is always better to wait a while because players can hit both hot or cold streaks that change as the season progresses. Goodman for example. The also assumed Williams was going to be an AA caliber player just because she was the top rated player in her class. I personally felt she was that by default. It was a weak class and she looked to me to be a player who didn't have that much upside left. You know I pretty much stated that on the Boneyard and got less flack that expected. She is an opportunistic type of player who takes what the defense gives her except against lesser defenders. Good solid player but certainly not AA material. |

Based on rankings, more highly recruit players are on UConn’s roster. Some of that is youth, some of that is having a superior playmaker passing the ball for the opposition today, but some of that also a lack of player development happening at UConn.
I want a steady diet of sour grapes for them fans, and I’ll really enjoy it if it’s an early exit to a team like Gonzaga or ASU in the early rounds.
With ND way under 500, there has been a lot to like about this season.
