Are folks wanting to blog about this first game, or are we too froze in anxiety about our game? Thought I'd at least start a thread.

I am not frozen with anxiety, but it is freaking cold here in CT. It is cold here in the house.

Really cold here in Rhode Island, too. I went for a long walk to settle down, and now I'm exhausted.
Good luck with the shot tomorrow! Saturday's a good day to get it. You'll be better by Monday.

So who is everyone cheering for? I am going for Stanford. I just don't want to see SC move on to the championship. Period.

I think it was Phil or swash (I'm sure I'll be corrected!) who said that, if UConn wins tonight and plays SC, UConn will win by 15; but if UConn plays Stanford, Stanford will be favored. I pretty much agree. Stanford is very long and fast and incredibly smart. I think they'll be a tougher game for UConn.

I just want a good game with no injuries for any team. I keep going back and forth. But I lean toward Stanford only because I dislike South Carolina. I think South Carolina would be an easier out IF (mojo protection invoked) UConn is able to take care of business and advance tonight.

Phil: if you're reading this, wave your hand!

I miss Kara Lawson as the studio. She is far better than Carolyn Peck.

I will be eating dinner during a part of this game. So posting may be light for a time.

First Final Four for so many of the players, because of last year.
Watching the pregame hype, I don't know what's hype and what's accurate.

Two turn overs for Stanford to start.

Maybe a little nerves for Stanford to start?

Looks like these refs are not "letting them play".

Stanford is not looking like the top #1 in this game so far. Seems they are playing very tight.

Stanford spotted Louisville a big lead, but SC is a lot better than Louisville.
Stanford is a finesse team; SC a power, physical team.

Stanford is very long and fast and incredibly smart. I think they'll be a tougher game for UConn. Oh, remember that last NC game against Stanford? |

Stanford playing so well within itself. A great pace. Very calm, methodical in its style.
