@@samuel4411 They've won 11 national championships since 1995. Counting last year (which no one won, really), that's 25 years. That's still a lot but that's 14 they DIDN'T win. So, no, they don't "win almost every year."' Edit: Well, okay, maybe almost every *other* year, on average, heh.
2014 the UConn women's team finished the season with a overall 40-0 record and the women's national championship title same year the UConn men won the title as well
Just getting to this one, Mr. Russell, thanks a bunch. Man, this was one tough, tough team; tough minded, tough willed, physically tough. Why UConn gets bashed so much, I don't know, it's crazy. Winning is so impressive, it's so hard. But America is funny that way; American sports fans embraced the Steelers, but just for awhile; American sports fans really don't like the Patriots; back in the day it was the same for the Celtics, the UCLA Bruins. Crazy. Thanks again, Mr. Russell, for preserving and sharing the greatness!!!
Notre dame was knocked out by kaleena she put them in the ground with all those bombs nobody does it better #23 that number is iconic maya Wore it as well UCONN GIANTS AMONG MIDGETS
One key to this win is that UConn played six for 196 minutes and ND played eight for 198. A deep bench is helpful when injuries or foul trouble exist, but Geno believes in having starters who can play all forty in big games. McGraw nailed it in the post game at 1:32 when she said she thought they could come back when they subbed... they didn't sub.
Thanks a million for sharing these clips with us fans, Mr. Russell. As a fan of WBB and coach of high school girls basketball, these games are a huge plus. Thank you.
wish natalie achonwa had played in this game. as a uconn fan & a basketball fan in general, it would've been awesome to see both teams at full strength. ND probably would've still lost but i think the game would've been more competitive down the stretch.
Linwood, Don't know how to thank you enough for posting the NCAA games. I wrote to everyone I could think of in authority to try get a DVD. No luck! I have been waiting for someone to post the games and you're the man. Now we need to get a better TV in-season package so we can watch this "new" team develop. Thanks again.
Geno and the UCONN Huskies are the greatest coach and players tandem ever. If I were a hightly touted player comming out of high school. UCONN would be my only choice.
Linwood Russell: Don't know if you'll see this. I had a question about a UConn game and don't know where to put it. When I search online nothing comes up. Do you (or anyone reading) happen to remember during the Ketia Swanier years: They were playing on the opposing team's floor. It was a back and forth game, and near the end of the game, the other team was so excited that they might beat UConn (they were up by one, I think), that they started celebrating too early and didn't get back on defense and Ketia Swanier ran the length of the floor and put in a last second basket and destroyed the other team's premature celebration. Does anyone remember what year that was and the opponent they were playing?
Still when the women's game was doing two halves not long after this one or two later the women's game for college started doing four quarters not long after that

I'm sorry dude women's basketball is better these women can shoot and know the game only game I would watch over uconn women is golden state that's the only men's game that would Keep me from watching uconn screw the Norte dame Maryland game👍
dunking a basketball gives you a skill? My tall son can dunk a ball... but he cannot play or shot the mid-range basket. Majority of these women are taught the fundamentals over and over again.
Breanna won 4 straight championships... In a class by herself. If you're going to compare her to someone, it should be one of the UCONN Greats(Diana or Maya).
Linwood Russell --To that I will just say that looks are subjective. But for me personally, I find all three gorgeous. I feel the same as you about all sports Notre Dame except the women's BB team. Love their efficiency.
UCONN goes 40 and 0. Notre Dame never did it! South Carolina never did it! UCONN women, for straight championships. Baylor never did it! UCONN men's and Women's champions in the same year... twice! Katlin who?
What a waste of money. Games played in almost empty arenas,no tv ratings at all, infomercials attract more viewers. The money spent to fly these teams all over the country is a joke, and where does the money come from it comes from the money the men's tourney generates. Women getting a full ride at universities to play BB,pitiful
The Final Four was sold out and the whole weekend events was sold out! The women's game is more fundamentally sounds then the men's game. It's just small minded people like you that belittle WBB.
The Games will never have the draws like the men's games. But they have some really good teams that fans support well. This new(old) format will see a larger draw this year tourney. I will be at the games in Albany & Tampa!
Men's college basketball any day over woman's basketball, you will never see a number 1 seed get upset in woman's college basketball ever!! The sport is so uncompetitive it's not even funny. Who wants to see the same team like uconn go undefeated and win the national championship year after year. I think I'll pass lol
People who loves WCBB... UCONN asa#1 team lost to Then #6 Stanford. So it does happens. Plenty of times a #1 team has lost in WCBB. Just not as often in the MCBB. THE Women ranking is more on talent then which team is hot. So the #1 team is truly the #1 team.
Clearly you are not well informed. It's the women's side that has seen the only #16 defeat a #1 seed. That has never happened on the men's side. It's been more competitive in some years than others. Clearly you don't watch anyway so why are you even on this page, if not just to troll.
