It’s kind of interesting that ppl online are saying Hidalgo who’s a great player don’t get me wrong, outplayed Paige but I feel like more of Paige’s shots were contested and Hannah got 7 FTs to Paige’s 4. Plus Paige still had a higher FG%. That all being said I hope UConn can defend the 3 point line better and hit more 3’s themselves going forward I think that was the difference tonight.
Well first, the ability to be in the FT line is a skill of its own and as well as the ability to get open shots. Second, 3 FT wasn't that much of a different. I think the reason why people are saying that she was outplayed is because she is supposed to be a dominant player. People can't stop talking about how her skills and game are in different level so naturally the expectation is somewhat higher compared to the younger player like Hidalgo.
@@may2972 I appreciate your comment, most ppl are so mean! I do think 3 FTs are a big difference considering Paige didn’t get a fair whistle and deserved to go to the line more than she did tonight. I also think her scoring 25pts with the amount of coverage she had while not nailing 3s was dominant. You’re right though about Hannah being so great at such a young age, and truly so well rounded. She’s only going to get better! I’d be a huge fan if she wasn’t homophobic.
UCONN got out played across the board. Paige was just smothered the whole game plus she play the whole game. ND collapsed to the middle anytime UCONN tried to drive. Remember, UCONN is still coming together and played w/o Azzi. No Patterson and no Ducharme. Jana is still growing into her role. In 6 weeks, they'll be better.
In terms of being a fun team to watch, Notre Dame ranks with Michael Jordan's Bulls, the showtime Lakers and the great teams of the 60's when the NBA was a bit more watchable. Coach Ivey has truly assembled a well-balanced group of young women. Soni and Liatu would be All-Americans if they played on a non-top five team. With Liza back and Maddy Westbell a few weeks away from returning we are set to see some awesome basketball! What a team--five graduate students, a great coach and Miss Hanna--my choice already for player of the year.
Sonia Citron smothered Paige throughout the game, especially in the first half. That was the difference in the game. Watch closely how Citron defended Paige, and you'll understand how Uconn lost its rhythm.
because everyone else is really decent but paige is the only one who can go create for others and make the read to create for her self at the same time , azzi is just always hurt so their other player who can do so isn’t available
Sonia was crazy good, that's for sure. But I think the frontcourts were the deciding factors of this game. UConn's was outplayed where they should have dominated.
The criticism Paige is getting really pisses me off. The world expects her to win the game on her own. The pressure on Paige this year is intense. She is the one that other team players focus on the most. I mean we seen how hype the girl got after taking the ball from Paige 😅 idc what anyone else says, she is still the best. She played a good game.
Paige did the best she could. Without Azzi Fudd she just didn't have much help. Sarah Strong was in foul trouble most of the game, which limited her effectiveness. Chen played ok but was also in foul trouble I think. Kk Arnold was good off the bench, but Shade and Brady gave them nothing really. Notre Dame was simply better because they had the better team that night. Plus they were at home and getting all of the calls. It's only UConn's first lost so no need to overreact. ND has 2 losses, which people are conveniently forgetting. Paige took 20 shots, shot 55%, and scored 25 points. Way better than her last 2 games.
Look, Notre Dame played Paige just like they played against Ju Ju from USC, the other team's best shooter in making the others try to beat and defeat Notre Dame, no difference, FRFR
Yes azzi... Would have been a huge help to paige. Paige has a great basketball iq. Her first step is slow. But her and fudd play very well together. ND was tough last night, but south Carolina will b 3 times as mean. Sorry to say Paige is a tad better than average....with fudd she's comfortable and better.... All this hype...is too much on anyone's shoulders
BOUT DAMN TIME GENO coaches a team approach - either he is senile or has lost his edge P. B. CAN NOT win every fckn game ---- Ash is best defender and last year and again this year is just another throw away player for the 1 player team said last year Ash should have transferred and suggested N DAME - BUT the play that guaranteed the win was Allfy under basket with position gets a perfect pass chest high and only to jump a few minutes and make easy lay-up but nooooooo she had to bend over 1st to bounce ball then come back up and shoot well ball was stolen and 1 sec later a Irish lay-up and 13 points later game was over - that play should never ever occur at D-1 level never !!!!!! and U Conn continues to play with zero interplay and rythnm !
Uconn has won 38 times against Notre Dame and lost only 16 games to them. It’s not an “everybody knew” thing. They were down by 11. Azzi and Griffin could’ve added more 3 shots to that score which would’ve got them the win.
@@SummerBaker-r6m they won against UCONN earlier this year and again today. It's not about previous games 10-20 years ago. we're talking about the current roster and ND is just better
Paige Bueckers scored 25 points in a losing effort. I noticed when Ms. Bueckers had the ball, the other UConn players just STOOD AROUND, waiting for her to do her thing. After Paige passed off, she was constantly moving. I watched two Indiana Fever BB games last season, and when Caitlin Clark had the ball, the pro players constantly moved. So the UConn coach needs to quit criticizing Paige and look at himself in the mirror. HORRIBLE COACHING.
Geno is annoying and long in the tooth. Yes he was big time successful years ago. Question is how to you relate to your team...( Paige s team)... who's always making spoof videos, getting nil $, getting your own sneakers. Going to all sorts of popular events this past summer. Basketball culture is border line modeling. Uconn isn't really being that honest w itself. Their recruiting classes are legit...their chemistry and focus is confusing!!!
@@geraldbutler5543notre dame was up by 13 at the half, they just had no answer the big girl. South Carolina matched up great with TCU. South Carolina hasn’t won a top 5 match up yet, and got beat by 20 when they did play a top 5 team. South Carolina fans are so cocky, even after getting beat by 20. Can’t wait to prove you South Carolina fans wrong.
yea with that performance from shade it's clear that no one can replace azzi on the court...UConn really needs her I hope she can stay healthy for march!
she's the new CC...ESPN and the media gonna tell you she's the best whether its factual or not...she will get all the non-stop promotion and hype over all the other top players - INCLUDING THE PLAYERS WHO ACTUALLY WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP, lol
I tell you what, if I were a four or five star women's basketball recruit in high school, I would not go to UConn. I'd pick Notre Dame, UCLA, Iowa, TCU or Texas. As for South Carolina, Dawn Staley only seems to focus on recruiting African American players and lacks diversity in her recruitment. UConn is supposed to have the best women's bball players and have the winningest couch in Geno, but their game play is just joyless to watch and none of them seem to be enjoying playing bball under Geno the control freak. For that same reason, I also wouldn't go to LSU. The difference between Van Lith playing at LSU vs TCU is startling. I'd go to a program that would let me be me but refine my game and ball skills in offense and defense and not suck the joy out of my game style. Caitlin Clark would not have been the standout player she was at iowa if she had attended UConn.
paige keeps on hiding from the ball only her teammates keep it. too much hyping her makes her a clown , can't compete a strong team contender only good if they are playing against a loser team. wake up uconn! happy are you bracketed with a weak team.
You called her “obsolete” last week and she just had a 25 pt game over 50% FG against probably the top defensive college wbb team. At this point you just hate her 😂
@@peytong4484...people dislike the hype. Aside from the hype...I'm sure paige is a incredibly kinda awsome person. But overall basketball culture is wack
@@peytong4484 all basketball fans are armchair warriors who have never played. I love how this ND team absolutely smacked Juju watkins who everbody claims is the "greatest ever" and nobody says shit.
