The starting 5 is great! But Hassan Diara has been very consistent and dependable off the bench.

[@mrmojorisin8752]

We haven’t see UConn’s “A” game. They shot 3-17 from three tonight. They are a decent three-point shooting team. If they have a “normal” shooting night……

[@kodiak138]

Crazy I made that almost exact comment on another breakdown video I just watched.

[@tomcassille3356]

They should have won by 40+.

[@wesmohn8700]

Completely true, the final four teams should be scared that we haven’t truly shot that well the entire tournament. We have some great shooters and a few other guys who can hit 2-3 in a row.

[@Jacob-fz6zx]

​@wesmohn8700 lil puppies should be scared of the #1 offense coming there way Saturday. Alabama is going shock the world once again. Potentially the best offense in college history

[@mauricebrown1277]

I was telling my boy this last night. Tonight’s hat was hung on Defense. When they click offensively no one can beat them because the D is so good.

[@Jahadyn]

I keep saying it, but these guys don't get it: UCONN is too deep. Check their box scores since Jan -- this is their MO. Good teams can stay with them for one half, but then they crush them in the second half because they play 9-10 guys who are good enough to be starters, and those guys all have fresh legs. They...WEAR...YOU...DOWN. No one else is able to match their intensity and talent level for 40 minutes. And on one day's rest? Forget it. Alabama has 5 days to rest and prepare so they have a shot.

[@AlejandroRease]

Alabama does not have a chance guards r to small

[@Jahadyn]

@@AlejandroRease I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. I just know it's nearly impossible on 1 day's rest.

[@kodiak138]

The problem with that theory is UConn is getting the rest also and no matter how good they look I am sure they need it and will help them also.

[@Jahadyn]

@@kodiak138 I don't disagree -- just saying on short rest they have an even BIGGER advantage.

[@mr.nobody9697]

@@AlejandroRease Yeah thats going to be a big problem for Bama especially when Castle and Diarra are in the game. Theyre both lock down defenders (just ask Shannon and Boo Buie) and even if you get passed them then youre driving right at Clingan and thats a dead end especially for small guards.

[@itsjustacomment454]

Final 4 is in a dome. Teams historical shoot worse from 3 in domes. UConn has shown they don't need the 3. This doesn't bode well for Alabama even keeping it close.

[@mr.nobody9697]

Thats an interesting point and i agree its not good for opposing teams.

[@Jacob-fz6zx]

Uconn may keep it close till few mins left in 4th , then Alabama is once again going take over the show. No one's stopping the #1 offense in college. & potentially the best offense ever.

[@YeIIowNBA]

@@Jacob-fz6zxUConn has the #1 offense in the country, so that’s completely wrong, and lol what? “No ones stopping their offense” > looks at Illinois who had the #2 offense in the country. Give me a break, sears is getting locked down by castle, and Alabama isn’t deep. Diarra and Stewart will come in, Alabama will get worn down. Alabama won’t be able to defend UConns sets, it’s near NBA level.

[@Jacob-fz6zx]

@YeIIowNBA put the meth pipe down kid 💀 😆. Alabama scores the most points / averages the most points out of any team.( #1 offense ) no chance unconn lil puppies stops this elite offense ( alabama offense may be the best we have witnessed ever ) mark sears is going have a field day 🥱. Pringle is going dominant once again down low & grab rebounds. And all those 3s we going hit.

[@Jacob-fz6zx]

@YeIIowNBA sit back & enjoy a unstoppable #1 ranked offense ( alabama ) go to work. This team may go down as the best offense ever in college 😉

[@jimmihaley9679]

uconn mens basketball beats the detroit pistons.

[@user-cs2ux5xf6d]

Keep dreaming! It's gonna end up the same as the other games! With an Alabama loss!

[@Thatsfrompowersbitch]

If I had 100 bucks for every missed travel called when UConn is attacking I’d have like 2500 bucks.
