Final Score: UConn 76 Marathon Oil 53. Didn't shoot well at all, but elite defense and rebounding all over the court. Ross gonna be the ultimate glue guy this year.
Early thoughts from Purdue exhibition...Colben Landrew reminding me of a young Caron Butler with his strength and size...Oscar has got a nice touch around the rim...Purdue going to have a long season with no Braden Smith out there

Defense really woke up the last 5 minutes. This team is build different. The Uconn teams of the past 5 years would have gotten run out of the building in an environment like this down early. #uconn#bleedblue

When was the last time the UConn men were ranked higher in the AP poll than the UConn women? It may happen today when the new polls come out this afternoon.
If Providence wins the Big East regular season for the first time ever this season it comes with a huge asterisk. Their refusal to reschedule their games against Uconn and Creighton is a joke. Uconn has proposed multiple dates to reschedule and PC has said they are unavailable
