Hard Luck

1/25/09



The the No. 3 (soon to be # 2) Huskies took a 69-61 battle over No. 19 Notre Dame before 11,418 at an amped up Joyce Center . ND's 45-game home winning streak (the longest in the nation) and their 20-game BE home streak (tied for best all time) are now history. Digger's green tie and the ESPN Gameday crew had the joint in a frenzy, but the veteran Husky squad had their mind on settling another score -- Providence you're next on that list.

Adrien (19 boards) was a beast and Price and Dyson did what they do. Harangody (24, 14) was very impressive, but in the second half his wing man, Kyle McAlarney, was not. Uconn improves to 18-1 (7-1) and with a third loss in a row, the Irish are looking for some answers.

One Irish student held up a sign for the cameras, "Hey Thabeet, Can you spell ESPN?"

hey pal, can you spell bubble?

"I love the silence in the final minute of a game," Jim Calhoun said. "I've always kind of liked to go on the road. There's something about fighting on the road that I think develops character and brings out character."
