The Final Four

We're here in St. Louis, where the final four is underway. It's unbelievable being here. We're watching the 2nd half of the Louisville/Oklahoma game. It's down to the wire, tied up at 42 a piece. After last night's lost to Michigan State, the UConn fan basis could really use some cheering up.

If there is any team that can deliver, it's the women's team. You really couldn't ask for a better primetime matchup between Stanford and Connecticut. What do you know, it's the same game. Just last year, UConn suffered a heartbreaking loss to this team (82-73) in the national semifinals. Tonight is going to be all about intensity, and these girls are hungry for a national championship.

Stanford is no joke though. UConn needs to watch out for Jayne Appel, who scored 46 points against Iowa State. The Huskies need to stay out of foul trouble and come out with the same momentum they've maintained throughout the entire season. The "big three" need to be on their a-game. Take smart shots, go to the hoop and feed the ball to Hayes for those big threes! Tip-off in a hour. Here we go ladies.
