NCAA Womens Basketball: Connecticut at Tennessee

For the first time in a while, we have a lot of basketball to talk about on Chasing Perfection.

We open with UConn’s win over Tennessee and break down the performances of Olivia Nelson-Ododa, Christyn Williams, Evina Westbrook and Paige Bueckers. We also explain why we think it’s important for the series to continue, even if the rivalry will never be the same.

After that, we get into the injuries plaguing the Huskies with both Bueckers and Makurat sidelined. We also talk about the Georgetown win and debate our level of concern with the offense.

Then, we preview UConn’s upcoming matchup against No. 19 Arkansas and discuss Saylor Poffenbarger’s eligibility.
