I'm not impressed by these two teams.  They combined for 11-23 from the charity stripe.  That's not the result of good defense.  They also combined for 39 turnovers.

Here was their shooting:

UCONN 40%/13%
SCAR 37%/11%

There were only 3 baskets made from beyond the arc.  3 for 24.  Many of these shots were uncontested. In contrast, AZ was 9-15 from 3 against OR tonight.

Despite having 31 points, Bueckers was only 14 of 26 and 1-4 from 3.  Even though she was scoring the bulk of UCONN's points, SCAR did not adjust their defense to stop her.  I don't think Tara would play it that way.

I like our chances if we are lucky enough to get to play either of these teams.
