UConn women's basketball coach Geno Auriemma talks with the media ahead of Saturday's matchup with Louisville. Apologies if this is a duplicate

This a brief excerpt from Dan:
Two areas that could sink the Huskies? Fouls and rebounding. UConn is +13 overall on the glass this season, but is -33 against its four ranked opponents this season. Meanwhile, Louisville is +122 through 11 games.
The Cardinals have also taken the fifth-most trips to the free throw line this season, while the Huskies have committed a foul on nearly a fifth of their total possessions. UConn doesn’t exactly have the upper hand in the key areas that Auriemma highlighted.

This game comes down to UConn having Bueckers. |

It is not about Louisville. But I think this was an interesting comment from Geno today:
I am not sure why Pittsburgh wouldn’t want that game. They are going to be one of the worst teams in a power 5 conference this year no matter what. A high profile game even a defeat in another country at least puts the program name out there.

In post game, CD said rebounds were a point of emphasis, and UConn outrebounded Louisville 33 – 29.
