Hey all! Thanks for downloading another episode of the show! We started later for this one for Russ and he was STILL an hour late hahaha. Eggman and Fudd held it down until he was able to show up and we held a "what is new in gaming for you?" round robin discussion. It is really cool we all enjoy the same games BUT also play many different genres and styles, so we get some good perspectives on things we're not paying attention to! Party games are party games.

We explore whether this injury could be a blessing in disguise for UConn, as younger players gain valuable experience in the thick of Big East play. We also preview UConn's upcoming matchup against Georgetown and analyze whether the Hoyas can make this game more competitive than their first meeting. Finally, we take a look around women's college basketball: LSU remains undefeated, South Carolina faces a major setback with Ashlyn Watkins' injury, and the national landscape is heating up as March approaches. Segment 1: Who Needs to Step Up Without Paige Bueckers?Azzi Fudd and Sarah Strong have stepped up admirably in Paige Bueckers' absence, with Fudd leading the offensive charge and Strong continuing her reliable two-way play. Allie Ziebell has been the breakout star, scoring 17 points off the bench in the win over Xavier, including five made three-pointers. Her poise and confidence raise the question of whether she's ready to contribute consistently. Other players to watch include Jana El Alfy, who has adapted well to her new starting role, and Morgan Cheli, who could provide impactful minutes off the bench. With Aubrey Griffin set to return in about a week, the rotation will gain even more depth, and her defensive energy and veteran leadership will be crucial. Segment 2: Is This Injury a Blessing in Disguise?The timing of Paige Bueckers' injury could actually be a positive for UConn in the long run. With the Huskies in the middle of Big East play, Geno Auriemma has an opportunity to give younger players extended minutes, allowing them to build confidence and gain experience. UConn's upcoming matchup against Georgetown presents another chance for players to step up. In their first meeting, the Huskies dominated, but the Hoyas have made adjustments, with senior center Ariel Jenkins and guard Kelsey Ransom leading the way. Jenkins has been a force on the boards, and Ransom brings scoring versatility, making them key players to watch in this rematch. UConn must show they can maintain their dominance without Bueckers, and a strong performance will reinforce their position as title contenders. Segment 3: Around Women's College BasketballLSU continues to impress with their perfect 18-0 record, punctuated by a road win over Tennessee. The Tigers are proving themselves as legitimate title contenders, but questions remain about their strength of schedule. Meanwhile, South Carolina suffered a devastating blow with the loss of Ashlyn Watkins to an ACL injury. Watkins was a key defensive anchor and a strong presence in the paint, and her absence will significantly impact the Gamecocks' title hopes. The national landscape is also shifting as teams jockey for position ahead of March. UConn is currently projected as a No. 2 seed, USC is surging behind JuJu Watkins, and several teams outside the top five are making a case for deeper tournament runs. This is shaping up to be one of the most competitive seasons in recent memory, with every game adding more intrigue to the race for a national championship.  “Thanks for listening to Locked On UConn.

We'll also dive into Allie Ziebell's breakout performance off the bench and her importance moving forward. Finally, we'll take a look around the world of women's college basketball, including South Carolina's devastating injury news, USC's rise behind JuJu Watkins, and UConn's projected seeding in the NCAA Tournament.  Segment 1: Azzi Fudd Leads UConn to a Blowout Over Xavier Let's start with UConn's dominant 81-27 win over Xavier. While Xavier isn't a strong opponent, this game showed us a lot about the Huskies' ability to adjust and thrive without Paige Bueckers. Azzi Fudd led the way with a season-high 23 points. What stood out was her aggressiveness—she wasn't just relying on her three-point shot but attacked the basket and created opportunities for herself and her teammates. Fudd said after the game that she felt freer on the court, and it showed. She's building trust in her knee, and that confidence is translating into her play. Sarah Strong also had a fantastic game with 15 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 steals. Her energy on both ends of the floor was key to UConn's success. And then there's freshman Allie Ziebell, who scored 17 points off the bench. We'll talk more about her in the next segment, but her performance was a significant bright spot. This wasn't about making a statement—it was about growth. UConn used this opportunity to build confidence and develop its depth, which will be crucial as the season progresses. Segment 2: Allie Ziebell's Breakout Performance Allie Ziebell had her moment in UConn's win over Xavier. The freshman came off the bench to score 17 points in just 18 minutes, hitting five three-pointers in the process. What made Ziebell's performance stand out wasn't just the numbers—it was how poised and confident she looked. She didn't force shots or try to do too much. Instead, she found her spots and played within the flow of the game. That kind of maturity is rare for a freshman, especially in a program like UConn, where the expectations are sky-high. With Paige Bueckers out, the Huskies need players who can step into larger roles, and Ziebell showed she's capable of doing just that. Her performance adds another layer to UConn's depth, which is critical as they navigate the challenges of conference play and prepare for the NCAA Tournament. Even Paige was hyped for Ziebell. She cheered her on from the sidelines and shared a picture with her on social media after the game, showing the kind of support and unity this team has. This game was a confidence-builder for Ziebell, and if she can build on this performance, she'll be a key contributor for UConn moving forward. Segment 3: Around the World of Women's College Basketball Now, let's zoom out and look at what's happening across women's college basketball because there's been a lot of movement this week. First, UConn is projected as a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament, potentially in the same bracket as Notre Dame. That feels about right for now. UConn has been strong but hasn't quite done enough to claim a No. 1 seed over teams like South Carolina, UCLA, and USC. A potential matchup with Notre Dame would be fascinating, though. Both teams are disciplined, well-coached, and equipped with talent that can thrive in March. Meanwhile, South Carolina got hit with devastating news this week. Ashlyn Watkins is out for the season with a torn ACL, and her absence is a huge blow to the Gamecocks' national championship hopes. Watkins was a defensive anchor and a key rebounder, and without her, South Carolina's margin for error just got a lot smaller. On the other hand, USC continues to trend upward. Led by JuJu Watkins, the Trojans handed No. 8 Maryland their first loss of the season. Watkins has been incredible, not just as a scorer but as a leader who makes everyone around her better. USC is quickly becoming a team no one wants to face in March. #uconnwbb #azzifudd #genoauriemma #uconnbasketball #uconnwomensbasketball #uconnwomen

Show Summary: In today's episode of Locked On UConn, we dive into the Huskies' latest dominant performance against Iowa State, led by Sarah Strong, Ashlynn Shade, and Paige Bueckers.

We'll also recap UConn's record-breaking night from beyond the arc and highlight standout contributions from players like Ashlynn Shade, whose scorching 20-point first quarter stole the show.

Let me start with this: if the WNBA held a draft today, and Sarah Strong was eligible, I'd take her No. 1 overall— Don't get me wrong, there are phenomenal players everywhere, but Sarah Strong has that once-in-a-generation combination of skill, versatility, and poise. She's just 11 games into her collegiate career, and already, she looks like a fully polished pro. Like she's already has a mortgage, 4 kids she manages an ungrateful husband and crushes here day on the daily, she looks like she has grown people problems, not whether her teammates called her go go gaget arms lol. Nothing rattles her. She's incredibly. Strong is averaging over 16 points, 8 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals per game, and she's doing it efficiently while being UConn's defensive anchor. She doesn't just fill a role; she dominates the flow of the game. Her ability to shoot from outside, attack inside, and create for others is unparalleled. When you're looking at franchise players in the WNBA, you want someone who can do it all, and Sarah Strong is that player.  When looking at the projected 2025 WNBA Draft class, Paige Bueckers is the clear headliner, pegged as the potential No. 1 pick by the Dallas Wings. Known for her elite ball-handling, scoring ability, and clutch performances, Bueckers has captivated fans since her freshman year at UConn. She's the definition of a complete player—someone who can run your offense, take over games, and lead a team. And honestly, you can easily make the case for Paige going No. 1 over Sarah Strong. Her résumé, experience, and proven ability in the clutch are unmatched. But when you factor in her injury history, I'd lean toward Sarah Strong. Injuries have been a recurring challenge for Paige, and while she's bounced back admirably, the pro ranks draft not just on what a player has done but on what they could become. Nobody has more upside than Sarah Strong. Now, take a step back and look at the rest of the top five in the mock draft—Kiki Iriafen, Aneesah Morrow, Olivia Miles. All incredible talents. But are any of them as impactful to their current teams as Sarah Strong is to UConn? The answer is no. Strong has the size, versatility, and poise to impact the game in every way, and that's rare. She's a scorer, a defender, a playmaker. She controls the pace of the game and elevates everyone around her. The pro ranks are all about upside and potential, and that's where Strong sets herself apart. No one else in this draft class—Paige included—has the ceiling Sarah Strong does. If I'm building a franchise and looking for a transcendent cornerstone, she's the player I'm picking. And yet, I'll say it again: if Sarah Strong were eligible, I'd take her over any of them. Even if underclassmen like Hanna Hidalgo or Juju Watkins were allowed in the draft, Strong would still be my choice. The WNBA is all about projecting where you'll be and future potential, and Strong brings the promise of potentially being the greatest baskeball player of her generation maybe of all time. She has the skillset, basketball IQ, and poise to transform a franchise from day one—exactly what you look for in a No. 1 overall pick. Now, you might argue Paige Bueckers has the track record, and JuJu Watkins has the raw explosiveness. Both are valid points. But in a league that's constantly evolving toward positionless basketball, I want the player who can impact every aspect of the game from day one. Sarah Strong is that, and that's why, if I had the No. 1 pick, she's the choice.”   FAN DUEL: Get ready to tackle the NFL action with FanDuel America's – Number One Sportsbook! Because right now, new customers can bet FIVE DOLLARS get ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY in BONUS BETS if you win! The FanDuel Sportsbook app gives you everything you need to place live bets on the NFL - all in one place! So when you get a hunch in the middle of the game, you can check out the latest stats, view live play-by-play and so much more on the same page where you place your bets. Just visit FANDUEL DOT COM to join today. You'll get started with ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY DOLLARS in BONUS BETS if you win your first FIVE DOLLAR bet. That's FANDUEL DOT COM Never waste a hunch and make every moment more with FanDuel, an official sportsbook partner of the NFL  PRIZE PICKS: Alright, UConn Nation, here's something to think about—do you think Liam McNeeley is going more or less than 14.5 points tonight?

The Huskies weren't just good—they were historic, setting a program record with 20 made three-pointers. UConn shot 58.8% from deep and overwhelmed the Cyclones from the opening tip to the final buzzer. The final score was 101-68, but honestly, it felt like it could've been worse. The story of the night? Ashlynn Shade. She came out firing, scoring UConn's first 14 points and finishing the first quarter with 20 on a perfect 7-7 shooting, including six threes. Shade ended the game with a career-high 27 points, going 10-13 from the field and 7-10 from three. Now, Sarah Strong was the game's MVP, and rightfully so. She posted a personal-best 29 points, hit five threes, grabbed nine rebounds, and added four assists. Paige Bueckers wasn't far behind with her third straight 20-point game, finishing with 27 points on 10-15 shooting. But here's the thing: on a night when Strong and Bueckers were both outstanding, it was Shade who stole the spotlight. Her hot start set the tone, and Iowa State never recovered. Led by Shade's scorching first quarter, UConn jumped out to a 36-10 lead, essentially ending the game in the first 10 minutes. The trio of Strong, Shade, and Bueckers combined for 83 points on 65% shooting, including 17 made threes. That's the kind of firepower that makes UConn the team to beat. Looking ahead, UConn takes on No. 7 USC this Saturday in a White Out game at the XL Center. This will be a much tougher test, but if the Huskies can carry over this shooting performance, they'll be hard to stop.” TNT CFP: CFP It's that time of the year - The College Football Playoff is back!

Ayanna Patterson is officially out for the season. It's a tough blow for a player who was showing signs of growth, and her absence will be felt in terms of depth and physicality. Meanwhile, Azzi Fudd remains on the mend, and while Geno Auriemma hasn't ruled her out for the USC game, I wouldn't expect to see her on Saturday. That said, the Huskies continue to get meaningful contributions from their younger players. Morgan Cheli and Allie Ziebell were solid off the bench last night, providing energy and making smart plays. KK Arnold was also steady, running the offense without making mistakes and playing great defense. She's not flashy, but her consistency is exactly what you need from a backup guard. What stands out about this team is the balance. Even without Patterson and Fudd, they're getting contributions across the board. Players are stepping into their roles and thriving, whether it's Ashlynn Shade lighting up the scoreboard or KK Arnold giving you the energy. Depth and adaptability are going to be crucial as UConn heads into a challenging stretch of games, starting with USC. If they can maintain this level of play, they'll solidify their spot as one of the nation's top teams.” Closing ThoughtsThe Huskies made a statement last night with their record-breaking win, and they're poised for an even bigger challenge against USC on Saturday. This has been another episode of Locked On UConn. I'm Mark Zanetto, Asking you to stay locked on and stay connected and to  Remember it's not just about getting it done……..it's about doing it in a way that…. ……it can't be done any better. …….That's our goal every day. Go Huskies…. 

 In today's episode of Locked On UConn, we dive into the Huskies' highly anticipated matchup against Notre Dame at Purcell Pavilion. No. 2 UConn, undefeated at 8-0, faces their biggest test yet as they take on the No. 8 Fighting Irish (7-2) in a game packed with historical significance and current intrigue. With Azzi Fudd sidelined due to a knee sprain, UConn will need key contributions from Ashlynn Shade, Kaitlyn Chen, and KK Arnold to step up in her absence. We break down their roles, Notre Dame's dynamic backcourt trio of Hannah Hidalgo, Olivia Miles, and Sonia Citron, and how this storied rivalry continues to shape women's college basketball. We also reflect on the history of UConn vs. Notre Dame, recounting some of their most iconic games and moments, from Final Four buzzer-beaters to national championship battles. This rivalry is more than a game—it's a measuring stick for greatness. As the Huskies look to maintain their unbeaten streak and Notre Dame seeks a statement win, this episode sets the stage for a game with enormous stakes. Show Notes: “UConn Faces Notre Dame: Rising Without Azzi Fudd” Segment 1: Rising to the Challenge Without Azzi FuddWith Azzi Fudd out due to a minor knee sprain, UConn will rely on Ashlynn Shade, Kaitlyn Chen, and KK Arnold to fill the void. Shade, returning to her home state of Indiana, will step into the starting lineup, bringing defensive energy and offensive versatility. Kaitlyn Chen, a grad transfer, must provide scoring and leadership in high-pressure moments. KK Arnold, meanwhile, will play a critical role in defending Hannah Hidalgo, using her physicality and defensive instincts to disrupt Notre Dame's dynamic freshman guard. Geno Auriemma has confidence in this trio to keep the Huskies competitive and maintain their signature efficiency on both ends of the floor. Segment 2: Notre Dame's Star Power and Game PlanNotre Dame enters the game with an elite backcourt trio in Hannah Hidalgo, Olivia Miles, and Sonia Citron. Hidalgo leads the Irish with 24.6 points per game, while Miles adds 17.2 points and 6.6 assists. The team's rebounding strength, led by Liatu King and Kate Koval, will test UConn's frontcourt. Notre Dame thrives on pick-and-roll action and second-chance opportunities, making UConn's ability to contain their guards and win the battle on the boards critical to the game's outcome. Segment 3: The Rivalry RenewedUConn vs. Notre Dame is one of the most storied rivalries in women's basketball history, with 25 top-10 matchups and countless unforgettable moments. From Skylar Diggins' dominance in the 2011 Final Four to Arike Ogunbowale's legendary buzzer-beater in 2018, this rivalry has defined an era. Thursday's game adds a new chapter, as UConn seeks to remain undefeated and Notre Dame looks to prove they can compete with the best. We explore the stakes for both programs, reflect on iconic games from the past, and predict how this matchup could unfold. Ads Gametime Ad CopyThere's nothing like being courtside for a live basketball game.

UConn is coming off its best performance of the season with a 33-point thrashing of No. 22 Louisville, but it also has to deal with the (temporary) loss of Azzi Fudd to a (minor) injury. With Notre Dame looming, we discuss how long the Huskies may be without Fudd, how her absence impacts the team and whether we can really know what their potential is. We also try to figure out the last time UConn looked like genuine national championship favorites and preview the heavyweight matchup with the Fighting Irish. This is a public episode.

 In today's episode of Locked On UConn, we dive into UConn's dominant 85-52 victory over Louisville at the Women's Champions Classic. Sarah Strong cemented her status as a rising star with a standout performance, while Azzi Fudd's sharpshooting provided the offensive spark. Even with Paige Bueckers having an off night and an injury scare for Fudd, the Huskies' depth was on full display as players like Ashlynn Shade and Jana El Alfy stepped up in crucial moments. We break down the key takeaways from the game, the emergence of Sarah Strong as a game-changer, and how UConn's bench keeps them among the nation's elite. Show Notes: Segment 1: UConn's Depth Shines in a Dominant Victory Over LouisvilleWe kick things off with a breakdown of UConn's 85-52 win over Louisville, focusing on how the team overcame an off-night from Paige Bueckers. Azzi Fudd's 18 points, including four three-pointers, kept the offense rolling, but the highlight was Sarah Strong's incredible performance. The freshman dominated with 21 points, eight rebounds, and stifling defense, leading Geno Auriemma to call her the “best player on the floor.” An injury scare for Fudd in the third quarter had everyone holding their breath, but she returned to the bench smiling, providing relief for fans. The Huskies proved once again that their depth is a major asset, with Ashlynn Shade contributing 13 points off the bench. Segment 2: Sarah Strong Proves She's the FutureIn the second segment, we shine a spotlight on Sarah Strong's breakout game. With 21 points on 8-of-10 shooting and contributions on both ends of the floor, she showed why she's already one of the most impactful players in college basketball. We discuss Geno's in-game declaration that Strong was the “best player on the floor” and compare her poise and versatility to UConn greats of the past. Strong isn't just making an impact—she's becoming a cornerstone of this team alongside Bueckers and Fudd. Her ability to score, defend, and control the game has Husky Nation buzzing about what's to come. Segment 3: UConn's Bench Depth and ResilienceThe third segment focuses on how UConn's bench stepped up after Fudd's injury. Ashlynn Shade looked every bit the future star with 13 points off the bench, hitting clutch shots when the team needed them most. Jana El Alfy, while still finding her rhythm, provided key rebounds and defensive stops. Even with Bueckers struggling offensively, her 10 rebounds and six assists highlighted her leadership and versatility. The Huskies' 23-9 third quarter encapsulated their relentless style of play, showing why this team can compete with anyone, even when they aren't at full strength. FanDuel Ad Read:Get ready to tackle the NFL season with FanDuel, America's number one sportsbook.

We explore the factors driving this change, including high-quality AAU programs, NIL opportunities, and international recruiting. Is UConn's dominance harder to sustain in this new era?

 Paige Bueckers is back and ready to lead the UConn Huskies women's basketball team with renewed strength and determination. After a summer of intense training, Bueckers returns to campus looking bigger and stronger, poised to make a significant impact. This episode explores the return of key players like Azzi Fudd, Aubrey Griffin, and Caroline Ducharme from injuries, each on their unique recovery path. The spotlight also shines on the incoming freshman class, led by #1 recruit Sarah Strong, whose versatility and elite passing skills promise to elevate the team's performance. Additionally, the discussion delves into Geno Auriemma's remarkable longevity and adaptability as a coach, as well as the potential implications of a weaker Big East conference on UConn's schedule and rankings. Tune in for an engaging analysis of the UConn Huskies' strategies and challenges as they gear up for the season.**Segment 1: Paige Beckers and Team Dynamics** The episode kicks off with a focus on Paige Beckers, who has returned to campus and is poised to lead the UConn Huskies. The host emphasizes the importance of supporting the podcast, which in turn supports UConn athletics through NIL efforts. Emily Adams, a beat writer from the Hartford Courant, joins the discussion, highlighting Beckers' readiness to embrace her role as the team's star. Beckers has been working on becoming more aggressive and taking control of games, a shift encouraged by coach Geno Auriemma. Her physical transformation and dedication during the offseason are noted, suggesting she's in prime condition to lead the team. The conversation also touches on the potential impact of other players returning from injuries, like Azzi Fudd, and the dynamic they could bring to the team. **Segment 2: Freshman Impact and Team Outlook** The discussion transitions to the incoming freshman class, particularly focusing on Sarah Strong, the number one recruit. Emily Adams describes Strong as a versatile player with exceptional passing skills and shooting ability, making her a valuable asset to the team. The potential contributions of other freshmen, such as Morgan and Allie, are also considered, with the expectation that they will see significant playing time, especially in a weaker Big East conference. The conversation reflects on the team's sense of unfinished business from last season, driven by the desire to capitalize on the talent of players like Beckers and Fudd, who have faced challenges with injuries. **Segment 3: Geno Auriemma's Legacy and Future** The final segment delves into Geno Auriemma's legacy and his recent contract extension. The discussion acknowledges the high expectations placed on Auriemma due to his past successes and explores whether these expectations are realistic. Emily Adams highlights Auriemma's ability to adapt to the evolving landscape of college sports, maintaining UConn's status as a premier program. The potential impact of conference realignment on Auriemma's tenure is considered, with the Big 12 offering both challenges and opportunities. The segment concludes with a reflection on Auriemma's enduring passion for coaching and his commitment to the program, suggesting he will continue as long as he enjoys the process and believes in the team's potential.

While the mainstream media is playing up Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's love of hunting and his supposedly moderate views on gun control, MN Gun Owners Caucus chairman Bryan Strawser says the governor has been an adamant supporter of "assault weapon" bans, depriving young adults of their 2A rights, and other infringements on our right to keep and bear arms.
