per USA Today:
It was, without a doubt, a performance meant to remind the world that UConn women’s basketball is the most dominant of its era and one that will go down in history.
The Huskies swept through South Florida, beating the 21st-ranked team 102-37, to tie the record set by a previous UConn squad for the most consecutive wins in college basketball history at 90. They’ll go for a new record on Saturday against SMU.
That’s right. They beat a top 25 team by 65 points. By the start of the second quarter, they were ahead 30-6. At the end of the half, it was 65-18. And they didn’t let up.
Geno Auriemma took a moment after the win to say how proud he was of his team.
“Forget the 90 wins,” he said, according to the Hartford Courant. “Tonight was like a perfect example of what Connecticut basketball is. I wouldn’t trade what we have for anybody in America.”
