Where would we be without AJ? I'd shudder to think about it
You don't actually have to imagine too hard, now do you?
Thankfully we’re usually much better at finding the open shooter when they stick 2 on her like today…and if anyone besides AJ could hit a 3 today, it would open things up a bit more.
I’ve always felt they should just run a regular offense and not worry about taking the shot with only 3 seconds left
It's pretty clear what UCF's approach was: double Audi hard in the paint. Seems like the obivous counter to that is to put Audi and 4 shooters on the floor: Jackson, Harris, Hare, and WIlson/J. Williams.
Instead, Paulk was playing most the 2nd and the beginning of the 3rd quarter. Love her energy, but her lack of shooting played right into UCFs hand and what they wanted to do on defense. When she would leave the lane, they just left her.

Hard to understand how we don’t have a plan to attack this kind of defense by now.
It's gotta be four shooters + Audi. Did it towards the end of the 3Q with some success. However, going away from that lineup early in the 4Q.
I couldn't figure out what Texas Tech was doing on Wednesday. The book has been out on Crooks since Baylor. Deny her. Sag. Don't let her catch, and leave our shooters open. Our PG can't shoot threes. Our SG can't shoot threes. Our forward can't shoot threes. Jackson is the only consistent threat. Harris off the bench can get hot. Other than that, we are very easy to guard on the perimeter. Get Brown back, and we have another threat to shoot and drive, and that makes it much more difficult to triple Audi.
