and relation to Harbaugh?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:10 PM ^
hmmm....that is Condi Rice....
December 30th, 2010 at 11:12 PM ^
slightly embarassing, but fixed
December 31st, 2010 at 12:45 AM ^
Who'd you think it was (out of curiosity)?

I was afraid people were going to forget that and the whole thing was just going to fly. Continue the BKFinest hate, he'll never be able to show his face on this blog again.

Now UConn has to win another 90 games before they ever get back on ESPN
December 31st, 2010 at 1:30 AM ^
They are just girls u know , from what the coach says.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:11 PM ^
If there was ever a time to rush the court at a women's bball game, this is the time. Unfortunately, most of the crowd looks to be over 35
December 30th, 2010 at 11:17 PM ^
"Why are they all sitting there?!"
My dad: "They don't have their walkers within reach."
December 30th, 2010 at 11:11 PM ^
Condoleezza Rice. Not Michelle Obama
December 30th, 2010 at 11:11 PM ^
Harbaugh doesn't want to be overshadowed by a woman's basketball program as dominant as theirs. Tiger Woods' lofty expectations also scare him. Come on, challenge me.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:12 PM ^
Kinda glad. I would've felt bad for the players if they lost before 88 but now that they have the record its good they lost. Women's basketball got more "face-time" on ESPN because of the streak, but a sport where one team wins literally every game gets boring fast. Only UConn fans could possibly want UConn to have kept winning every game once the 88 streak was broken.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:16 PM ^
Am I the only one who is confused about how a record set by a men's basketball team against men's opponents can be broken by a women's team playing against women's opponents? I thought they were treated as two entirely different sports. Or are all records unisex?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:18 PM ^
is 90 straight NCAA basketball games.
So, in essence, it is unisex.
However, it could be broken down as you say.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:19 PM ^
I'd guess you'd classify it as 3 separate records, with obvious overlap between two.
College Basketball
Mens College Basketball
Womens College Basketball
December 30th, 2010 at 11:38 PM ^
I guess. But its pretty much accepted for instance that men's sports are more competitive now than they were in the early 20th century (i.e. modern day Steelers would own any football teams from 50-100 years ago). So how do you compare football records set in the early 1900s to modern day football records? If the argument is that women's basketball records dont count because of inferior athleticism, doesn that apply to male sports teams from several decades ago?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:57 PM ^
All the time. But how often do you say the athletes 40 years ago would be better than the ones today? (Maybe teams, due to expansion and such- see: NBA) That's what you have here, and it's because the sport has the same name, but the game is different. Different balls. Different athletes. They're not the same at all.

I have to pee next to woman in the unisex bathroom at the nuclear plant i work for.
Dont worry Radiation is good for u, just ask anyone taking chemo.

if you were trying to be funny but this...
"Dont worry Radiation is good for u, just ask anyone taking chemo."
is not funny what so ever...

This is a great day in sports
An outrageous streak is finally put to rest
Pop the champagne
December 30th, 2010 at 11:12 PM ^
The win streak was a great accomplishment and everything, but enough already. We didn't need bonus coverage during the bowl game.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:13 PM ^
December 30th, 2010 at 11:14 PM ^
Comparison picture no longer needed.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:14 PM ^
Stanford's coach said she had watched every single game UConn has played and has been preparing to beat UConn for a very long time.
Stanford was definitely the better team with lots of big bodies.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:35 PM ^
Years ago, so ESPN wouldn't be force feeding us the story all this time.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:15 PM ^
My daughter is a big UConn fan and wants to play basketball there when she gets older. Sad day in our house, but no tears.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:16 PM ^
I'll pay you to send her here
....Don't tell her though
December 30th, 2010 at 11:16 PM ^
Thank God we don't have to hear about that team anymore.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:46 PM ^
What team?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:17 PM ^
Kind of sad. I'm gonna miss watching the flashy fundamentals on ESPN.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:44 PM ^
Even funnier was the conversation with Femputer, which was the top-ranked comment on that video.
"Hmmm... Perhaps the men are not as evil as Femputer thinks..."
"But they laugh women's basketball!"
"WHAT? Did you not explain how their good fundamentals make up for their inability to dunk?"
"They still laugh!"
"THE MEN MUST DIE"
December 30th, 2010 at 11:48 PM ^
Amy: You all obey a big computer?
Kug: Yes. It appear mysteriously just about time men die out.
Leela: So why did you make it your leader?
Ornik: It seemed like different kind of politician.
Kug: Not beltway insider.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:19 PM ^
Good. Maybe ESPN will stop talking about them. Thanks, Stanford.
December 30th, 2010 at 11:19 PM ^
As a Uconn Women's basketball fan it is a sad day. However, we knew the streak was eventually going to end. They didn't play a great game. It happens. They can still win the National Championship. Congrats on a great run!
December 30th, 2010 at 11:24 PM ^
Why was there a basketball court in the kitchen?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:27 PM ^
December 30th, 2010 at 11:56 PM ^
I assumed that the court was located in a swimming pool. Aren't all women's sports played under water?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:25 PM ^
Of all teams to break the streak, why did it have to be Stanford?
December 30th, 2010 at 11:29 PM ^
that loss set woman's basketball back 5 years, much like boise state's loss to nevada set back them back 5 years
December 30th, 2010 at 11:34 PM ^
UConn could have won 150 games and no one would have cared anymore than they did. The average sports fan will look at this score and say "oh neat" and then see what else is new in the sports world
December 31st, 2010 at 12:05 AM ^
lol wut?
December 31st, 2010 at 12:06 AM ^
Women's basketball needs more competitive balance. It can't just have one team run roughshod over everyone (which seems to happen regularly - remember Tennessee a few years back?). If this is a sign of greater parity, that's good for the game.
