Just by watching the Live Stats I am going to assume this is not beautiful basketball? We're giving up way too many 3's!!

Apparently whatever defense adjustments were made after the Arkansas game didn't include defending the 3 point shot. Are ONO and Edwards still on the bench?

34-30 with 4:05 to go in second Q. They’re making it look easy for Minnesota.

Interesting that our bigs have only two points between them.

Christyn might need some scoring help in the second half. And Azzi still has not found her stroke, it appears.

Wow. ONO is the assist leader for UConn. Up 12 at the half.

My guess? Geno is going to blast them during halftime for their lack of perimeter defense.

UConn has landed on the Lost Continent of Atlantis, but their 3 point defense has washed ashore on Gilligan's Island?

On the bright side at this pace they will win by 20+, the bigs aren't fouling and if it weren't for a couple of hot 3 point shooters it would be a blow out.

Interesting note, ESPN play by play is about 20-30 seconds ahead of the radio broadcast. Gophers won't be shooting 60% from 3 point land in 2d half. I hope. Go Blue.

Geno seemed a lot more relaxed in the half-time interview than he did in the Arkansas game.

24 points per quarter (until he calls off the huskies). That's the scoring target against an unranked team. They're only one off that at the half. It doesn't have that pretty quality, but it's okay with a lot of people cycling through. Killing MN with backdoor passes. A few too many turnovers.
However defensively, that figure is allow 16 points. Minnesota is only five ahead of that schedule, but they have hit ten threes at 60% accuracy. They're good, but no chance they'll keep that up. A few adjustments will help. Nothing about this game feels like there is a risk of an upset.
Caroline made one very nice move and didn't get the ball. She didn't seem to even consider putting up a three. Still looks nervous. Azzi looks more comfortable. Still a little static. Still forcing the shot a little, but she's getting open and getting good shots off. Defense is ... not there yet They're dogging Paige, but she's not looking for a shot very much, only 4 attempts Christyn and Evina look great ...

Came out on fire and got Paige involved right away. 8-0 run to start the half. Nice.

Whatever Geno said at half time the team seems to have listened and is putting it into action

MN has committed 5 fouls already this quarter? Wow. Looks like UConn is playing more assertively.

They can't stop Christyn. 26 points already. Aaliyah looking more like last season. Settling in. Seems like she's playing the 5 and Liv the 4 most of the time

Whatever Geno said at half time the team seems to have listened and is putting it into action I’d say. No points for Minnesota so far in the 3rd.
