    Not a UConn fan but I love watching this team play. They’ve got a little bit of everything, great guard play, bigs who can dominate the low block and step out and hit the occasional three, guys like Andre Jackson who knows his role and how to make winning plays. Fun team to watch

    San Diego State held Alabama to 23 points in the first half. Coincidentally, held Creighton to 23 points in the second half. Held Furman to 25/27 both halves, and Charleston 29/28 both halves! Not saying they will do it against FAU, but to do it against Alabama, Creighton, Furman and Charleston, all averaging in the 80's, except for Creighton (77) - is more than coincidence! BTW, in the Mountain West Championship game, they held Utah St (another 80 point/game team) to 29/28 both haves.
    Offensive avg point ranking for 2022 season: Alabama #7, Furman #12, Charleston #16, Utah St #33, and FAU #37, Creighton #64. *Check this out: San Diego State was ranked #183 in average offensive points - this shows you how amazing their Defense has been.
    San Diego State vs. UCONN 'rematch' of the 2011 Sweet 16, where UCONN (KEMBA WALKER) beat San Diego State (KAWAII LEONARD) to eventually win the National Championship.

    UConn reminds me of the Warriors. Obviously the NBA and NCAA are VERY different games - but both have multiple ball handlers and playmakers, an elite shooter, a point forward, a motion offense with off-ball screening, and depth.
    Anything is possible (literally) in March Madness, but it's hard to see any of the other 3 teams knocking them off

      Their stretch in-conference play losing 5 of 6 games.. They struggled to score, couldn't stop dribble penetration, sloppy with the ball in those games. BUT, outside of those games they have been pretty dominant. The Big East was a lot tougher at the top than they got credit for this year.. When UConn is hitting 3's it is a blowout. If they aren't they can still win ugly.. Miami will be an excellent game bc they can shoot it too

      why not? Not only does it give the team confidence, but winning so handily means they didn’t have to task their bodies and minds as much as a very close game. They should be a lot more fresh than Miami is going into the final 4.
      Also, Miami is one of the smallest teams in college basketball. Their incredible guard play has been their driving force for this final 4 run, and I feel like they’re going to have a tough time scoring with how versatile uconn’s lineup is (they also have one of the best defenses in the country)
      Not to mention that Sanogo and Clingan are significantly bigger than their 4’s and 5’s, which would be a difficult matchup in general, i mewn look at how difficult of a time Drew Timme had in the second half. If Uconn can limit their guards on the field then i’d say they have a very good chance of pulling through.
