THE REAL DEAL

Last night’s game in Tally should have been a good one… should have been… UConn proved why they are ranked #1.

Maya Moore got things rolling for the Huskies with 12 points in the game's first seven minutes, keying a 17-0 run that gave UConn an early 12-point lead on its way to a 41-35 halftime advantage.

The Huskies (11-0) led the rest of the way, opening a double-digit lead just four minutes into the second half and won going away.

"We totally dominated the game in the second half," Uconn coach Geno Auriemma said. "When we play our 'A' game we're not going to lose."

And UConn was far from playing its best. The Huskies didn't shoot a free throw in the second half and only eight in the game and was only 5 of 21 from behind the 3-point line. And it was the first time this season the Huskies failed to score 80 or more points.

"Everyone is going to come after us," Tina Charles (#31) said. "It's something we need to really take personal."
