Despite UConn's commanding win against Tennessee, you may have noticed that Swin Cash missed a ton of shots under the basket. She's not doing that this game, which is very encouraging-- but they've got to stop turning the ball over so many times.

UConn likes to run up and down the court off the boards but they seem to be doing on almost every possession. I expect them with a 12 point lead at half to slow it way down (as Coach Auriemma implied at the half)... but UConn's style after half time is to come out blazing and try to put teams away right away. Oklahoma played way better than to be behind by 12 (thanks to an 8-0 run by UConn), so they should also come out firing. Oklahoma is a three-point shooting team so the game isn't out of reach by any means, but UConn with Bird and Taurasi can shoot threes with the best of them as well if they have to. I console myself by thinking that Oklahoma when they last met UConn was behind by only four with four to play and lost by 14, meaning UConn does have the ability to turn it up a notch when it counts.
