UConn's defense will keep it in any game against any team. To take the next step and be able to beat teams like Duke, UConn needs to significantly improve offensively. Omar Calhoun has helped the team a lot in recent games. Facey and Brimah need to continue to improve and Lubin needs to help add something.
The team is headed in the right direction and the defense has been excellent- 35.6 FG% defense the last 4 games. That is as good as it gets.
