Video: More Important For UConn Men’s Basketball To Defeat Faceless Opponents

While UConn Huskies men’s basketball coach Kevin Ollie would like to see his team “step on the neck” of the opposing teams to put them away, there’s something else he would rather see in the box score.

And that would be beating the faceless opponents (rebounds, assists, turnovers, etc).

Watch and/or listen below as Ollie and Rodney Purvis talk about defeating the faceless opponents and  stepping on the opponents’ necks.

Video: Cardiac Kemba Outdone By Another Former Husky, Rudy Gay

At the end of Monday night’s Charlotte Hornets vs Sacramento Kings game, former UConn Huskies legend Kemba Walker hit what he and his Hornets team thought was the winning shot with .7 seconds left.

That didn’t turn out to be the case though as another former Husky in Rudy Gay hit a buzzer beater on an alley-oop off an inbounds pass to tie the game and force overtime.

Walker and the Hornets would get the last laugh though as they wound up taking the win in overtime.

Video: UConn Women’s Soccer Needs Strong Defensive Effort To Get Past Rutgers

If the UConn Huskies women’s soccer team wants to advance to the quarterfinals of the 2015 NCAA Women’s Soccer Tournament, they are going to need a defensive effort like they got on Friday night vs the Notre Fighting Irish.

The UConn women’s soccer defense held strong all night and took advantage of their opportunities. Goalkeeper Emily Armstrong and the back four in front of her didn’t let anything past them.

Standing in their way of a quarterfinal game is the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, who beat the Huskies 2-0 earlier in the season.

Watch and/or listen below as UConn head coach Len Tsantiris, Rachel Hill and Armstrong talk about what they need to do to beat the Scarlet Knights.
