Okay folks, we are signing off. Thanks for coming by, enjoyed doing this with you. Have a great rest of your week! 2010-2011 should be an intriguing season.

Hugs to your bearded husband. L8R, Allig8r!

btw: haha! (if I were 6'8" I'd be swimming faster. Love it!)

See ya later, swimmersara! Thanks for coming to the game.

I'm liking how Maya Moore is doing in the after-game interview.

Rebecca Lobo asks Maya Moore how UConn came back and did it. Moore's answer: "No fear. We were tentative in the 1st half. We stayed confident in the 2nd half." I think that's exactly right.

Stanford because next year, Nnemkadi Ogwumike's younger sister becomes a freshman at Stanford. Apparently, the younger sister is even better than Nneka.

Baylor because of that 6'8" freshman center, Griner, the shot-blocking machine.

My picks for who threatens UConn the soonest: Stanford and Baylor.

I think Stanford is the only team that has seriously challenged UConn all season. Both games.

I wonder who is going to end UConn's dynasty?

Geno Auriemma's teams are 7-0 in national championship games. Wow.

Congratulations, Stanford, on a fantastic season to make it to the championship game.

Congratulations, UConn! Nicely done.

Incredible game.

Stanford did not give up in the last few minutes. But neither did UConn in the 2nd half, and that made the difference.

If there is a silver lining for Stanford, and I'm not sure there is, it is this: This is the first UConn win in the streak by fewer than 10 points.

That's your game. UConn wins the national championship.

Last shot for 3 points, just barely misses.

Murphy again!

2nd shot fails.

Foul. UConn free throw is GOOD.

Melanie Murphy is playing like a hero.

Murphy drives down the court for 2 quick points!

Fixing the clock!

39.2 secs.

UConn takes a timeout.

And the 2nd shot ges in.

UConn makes the front end of the 1&1.

Every shot of him, he looks like he's got an ulcer.

Misses the 2nd half, Stanford ball.

UConn's outside pressure is excellen,t though, not letting Stanford shoot even a 3-pointer.

Maya Moore got that rebound, instantly foulde.

hayes: misses the 2nd shot, but UConn gets the rebound!

Hayes makes the 1st.

Nneka intentionally fouled to stop clock, UConn with the 1&1.

Stanford is in this game. Players on the floor look focused. Players on the bench look nervous.

Tina Charles and Maya Moore have been excellent this half. That's why UConn regained the lead.

Cardinal: keep competing!

Perfect shot. Hey, maybe they can do it.

Stanford uses it to take a timeout.

FANTASTIC, clutch shot.

UConn is punishing Stanford with threes.

UConn is simply outplaying Stanford under the basket.

And they battle for the rebound, but again UConn gets it.

Hones comes in for a layup, but again they miss!

Their shoting percentage needs to go up to about 95% now.

Stanford needs quick points.

All 77 wins by 10+ points. That's better than the UCLA 88-game men's streak.

Some stats about UConn's current win streak. THis is an amazing team, and an unbelievable streak.

I think, and maybe I'm wrong about this, that UConn has simply shut down Stanford's inside game.

The odd thing? Neither team is actually shooting all that well.

Wow, what a huge change in momentum. Stanford does not look in control at all. UConn is playing with confidence.

(sorry Stanford fan; I feel your annoyance.)

One of the concall people is at the game instead? That actually sounds pretty smart to me. :-)

Ogwumike makes a beautiful shot! Just inside the 3-point line, though. But hey, it's nice points.

UConn has 228 straight games without allowing an opponent to shot 50% or higher.
