UConn vs. Ohio State live stream

The top-ranked Huskies routed No. 7 Ohio State 100-56 on Monday night. They opened the season with a three-point win at Rhode Island and fell two spots to No. 25 on Monday.

“A lot of our issues were caused by them and how good they are but I also don’t think that a few of the adversity we hit that we reacted that well to”, McGuff said.

Kia Nurse added 16 points, Morgan Tuck 15 and Gabby Williams had 10 points and 11 rebounds for UConn.

Ohio State coach Kevin McGuff challenged his Buckeyes in their first two games, playing the top two teams in the country. “We can watch what we did and learn from it and make us a better team”.

“They should be able to look like they’ve played together awhile because they have played together awhile”, UConn coach Geno Auriemma said.

The UConn Huskies men’s team earned its 17th bid in the last 18 seasons to the NCAA Championship. But the Buckeyes worked their way back into the game. “We have other capable players who didn’t have their best nights, and we need them to show up”. They struggled a lot in that regard against SC, as Alexa Hart and Shayla Cooper combined to shoot 3 of 22 from the field for six points. That loss appeared like it could cost UConn a shot at the tournament, but the Huskies had gone unbeaten in their previous seven previous games and had three top 20 RPI wins to help bolster their resume to the selection committee. Granted they each came against top-two teams with SC being the nation’s second ranked team and UConn being the top ranked team. It’s the first time in the history of the program that the Tar Heels have lost the first two games of the season.

UConn remains the No. 1 team in The Associated Press women’s basketball poll on Monday. “That’s how you build a program”, Auriemma said.
