UConn took out Boston College. PGs Montgomery and Swanier ran circles around BC's guards; Barb Turner dominated the interior despite facing BC's 6'4" center Katherin Ress. The game stayed close early, but UConn took a 10-point lead into the half.

Things got chippy late: BC's Brooke Queenan flattened Montgomery with a forearm. "We played a hockey school today," Geno explained. "That's what you get when you play a hockey school."

Gampel Pavilion once again failed to sell out; by the end of the game the upper deck looked pretty empty. DiMauro asks if some fans have left because UConn has (too) few white players.

Three more likely explanations for the (slight) decline in Huskymania: 1. UConn is no longer defending three consecutive national championships. 2. UConn no longer has a magical superstar whose scoring moves draw national attention. 3. UConn no longer has any in-state players.

Next up for the Huskies: Oklahoma, whose frost post Courtney Paris has flattened opponents' frontcourts out west.
