If we don't rebound better it's going to be a loss. We were very fortunate that LSU is a terrible shooting team, they beat our doors off on the glass

UConn isn't nearly as good of a rebounding team as LSU is, and most of LSU's rebounds were from trying to just slap the ball in from 2 feet away.

UConn's tallest are Edwards and Brady (bench) at 6'3". Their starters across the board are 6'3, 5'9, 5'10, 6'0, 5'11.

LSU's were 6'3, 6'1, 6'0, 5'10, 5'7 with a 6'6 on the bench. Reese 6'3 and Marrow 6'1 are two of the best rebounders in the league.
 
Believe it or not two best rebounders Edwards and Bueckers only average 9 and 5 rebounds per game. The key will be limiting turnovers and transition points and making Bueckers shoot farther outside.

94-87. Rebound all you want. It's points that count. And have you considered this: LSU is such a terrible shooting team that many of their rebounds are of their own missed bunnies. They have great rebounding numbers for three basic reasons:

1 - They miss a ton of shots
2 - They are usually much taller than the opponent
3 - They get away with lots of pushing and shoving and climbing the backs of opponents when blocked out

You can have rebounds. I'll take the points.

Wow, I would have imagined that each of those teams would have had a 6'5+ cave troll crashing the boards. I guess those aren't nearly as common as I thought they were.
 
How? My 13 month old hits 7pm and is ready for bed and sleeps like a log until 6:30 am.
He's not much of a sleeper. 8-9 hours at night and one or two little naps during the day and he's good to go.

My 3 year old would sleep 14 hours a day if we let her. Kids are weird.
