1) Kemba Walker
2) Alex Oriakhi
3) Kevin Ollie

Not in order of goodness, obviously.

Five hours until tipoff of the big New Hampshire matchup. Huge battle for the hearts and minds of New England.

UConn and UMass are not acronyms.

Also, I just found out I can't watch tonight's game. ****! I'll do my best to listen to Joe D.

Poor New Hampshire, playing without its leading scorer for the rest of the season. Could give the Huskies an edge tonight.

Kemba is averaging 42 points a game against teams from New England this season. Solid trend for UConn.

I love how Okwandu starts and plays about five minutes a game.

Wow, the UConn band is playing Poker Face. I assume that's in honor of the Khalid El-Amin video I linked earlier in the thread.

I really hope Roscoe Smith and Jeremy Lamb can work their way into the offense during this stretch of cupcakes. Kemba's going to need some help scoring once Big East play starts.

Can't wait to read the stories about how the ranking went to their head.

Sometimes it's funnier to not say the punchline. I think this was one of those times.

At least there hasn't been any talk about the women's team being able to beat the men's team yet this season.

some girl who played club bball at my undergrad tried to tell me last year that the uconn women could beat some of the bad D1 men's teams

i retorted by saying the uconn women likely couldn't beat the men's club teams of those bad d1 schools, much less the ncaa teams

she wasn't happy

If you had told me New Hampshire was going to shoot 25% from the floor in the first half and attempt zero free throws, I probably would not have predicted they'd be winning by one.
