Figures

Just as I said the style of play would be different, both teams are shooting worse than 30 percent. It isn't defense, folks, it's just bad shooting.

Not what it used to be

UConn and Rutgers, Rutgers and UConn. However you want to look at this one-time rivalry, it simply isn't the same as it used to be. No longer can Rutgers' defense slow down the Huskies. No more can the Huskies get dragged down into the dredges of basketball.

And no longer does Rutgers have the star power it once did.

Folks, this is going to be ugly. I kinda miss the heated matchups, tension and all.

8:30 update

An hour since fans could enter and there are over 1,000 people here.

Surprised

I arrived at Gampel Pavilion by 7 a.m. and there were a few hundred people already in line to attend ESPN's College Gameday live from UConn this morning.

More as the event draws near...
