MSU plays defense, boxes out, runs the floor, crashes the board and shares the ball. Oh yeah and when UCONN drives to the basket, they take the charge and block their path. I give Izzo all the credit in the world. These are qualities of well-coached teams.
UCONN is soft!
No matter what anyone says they don't play tough defense (whatever happened to their press?), they don't box out they just rely on being taller, they don't get out and run the lanes on the fast break, the only time they get runouts is when they steal it and take it themselves, their offense is very blah (in fact i like what Greg Anthony said, "they didn't trust their offensive system tonight". And finally, they don't take the charge, they just reach down low and try to block it up high.
This game was won by one quality - toughness, MSU has it, UCONN does not. Being a Big East fan myself, I now find all UConn's success to be suspect. They were punked tonight and rolled up.
Time to head back to Storrs and steal some laptops!
