UConn Women's Basketball Needs To Rebound From 'horrible' Effort On Sunday Against A Much Better Creighton Team
UConn mentor Geno Auriemma was a long way from happy with his group's work Sunday at Providence, saying he "wasn't satisfied with regards to anything with the manner in which we played." 사설토토

The guard had one of its additional disappointing exhibitions in for a little while, which drained over to an incoherent hostile excursion where turnovers were by and by an issue. It didn't help that graduate understudy Dorka Juhász was out with a foot injury. Auriemma didn't know when the 6-foot-5 forward could return, however he didn't assume it would be a significant long haul issue.

The No. 10 Huskies (13-4, 8-0 Big East) should be better Wednesday night to take out the success against an intense hostile group in Creighton (15-5, 10-2) and keep their longstanding meeting win streak alive.

Whenever the groups initially met on Jan. 9, UConn saw its 17-point advantage therapist to eight in the last minutes prior to taking out a 63-55 win. Creighton has since gone 5-1, its only misfortune to Villanova (74-64).

The matchup

UConn's offense: When they played Creighton in January, the Huskies shot 45% from the field and only 25% from 3 while submitting 16 turnovers, a big part of which were voyaging calls. Ducharme drove the group in scoring (17 focuses), trailed by Williams (13), Edwards (12) and Juhász (10).

UConn's guard: The Huskies' safeguard has generally been solid this season, however their excursion at Providence passed on a ton to be wanted. In the groups' first gathering this season, the Bluejays shot 37.1% collectively and 20% from 3, a worthy representative for the Huskies' protection as Creighton entered that game as one of the most productive 3-point shooting crews in the country.

Creighton's offense: Ronsiek (14.8 focuses per game) and Jensen (12.0) are Creighton's top scorers, while Maly (7.3 3-point endeavors per game) offers one more weapon from the bend. Against UConn last month, Maly (14 focuses) and Ronsiek (10) drove the group in scoring, and the Bluejays won the fight in the paint.

"They're not a simple group to protect," Auriemma said after the primary UConn-Creighton game. "You must work super hard, and you must continue to work. The moment you stop, they get a layup or they get an open 3."

Creighton's safeguard: The Bluejays permit 62.2 focuses per game on 41.6% shooting (34.0% on 3s). They are a solid guarded bouncing back group, gathering the ball off 73.7% of misses.

UConn keys: Can the Huskies diminish self-caused wounds, explicitly turnovers? Would they be able to emerge with better protective power and have the option to support a significant degree of play on the two closures for 40 minutes?

"The offense looked great now and again, yet we need to simply improve at supporting things," Auriemma said. "We permit something that ends up hindering us, so we'll move forward, something will occur, we'll make two strides back. Also that ideally is something we can chip away at in the following several days, the half a month. ... The main steady that I've seen [as the group looks for its identity] is the irregularity."

Players to watch: Can Edwards and Nelson-Ododa move forward with Juhász's status for Wednesday being referred to?

Regarding Creighton's mentor: Jim Flanery is in his twentieth season. His Bluejays are looking for their fifth NCAA Tournament appearance subsequent to making it in 2012, 2013, 2017 and 2018. They brought home the Big East normal season crown in 2017.
