We played UConn one year in a preseason tournament, like in the Island Jam or something.
And they bust us up.
For the rest of the season, we basically stole their offense and ran it exactly like them and practiced it every day.
We basically prepared our whole season.
And then we saw them in the Final Four and beat them.
Yeah, I mean, I say what I feel about the system, both what I remember and what I see as an analyst watching UConn women's basketball, I feel like there is...
They're very smart, cerebral, IQ offense.
A lot of times you'll see them operating really high with a lot of space behind them.
Everybody's a willing playmaker.
Again, 30 assists.
They make you pay for mistakes.
You turn it over, they're off to the races and they're sharing that thing.
What I remember is and what I see is pace of play of running of sets wears on you over the game.
Conditioning level is superior and higher and you'll just see them pull away.
So on top of them having these like incredibly poised and high IQ players.
I mean, just to say one thing about Sarah Strong before we head to break for me with Sarah Strong.
For her to do that stat line, I'll say it again, why not?
29 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists, 5 steals, 3 blocks, 12 for 17 from the field, 2 for 4 from 3, 0 turnovers.
To be that involved at all times on both ends, that level of engagement and have no mistakes.
No turnovers.
